Literally planting roots in the community and making it greener!
🌳💚 This past week, we revisited Bill Patterson Park in East Oakland with @PoweredwithAva and @oaklandprf to care for the trees we planted and add new ones. By nurturing these trees, we’re helping to filter freeway emissions, reduce urban pollution, and expand green spaces in The Town. Take care of your roots and keep growing, Oakland. #OaklandFirstAlways
