Description
As early as 1927, and as evidenced in this photograph, Sacramento has long been the site of several urban forests. By February 1927, the Capital City contained more than 32,000 trees, half of which lived in residential sections of the central city. In the same year, city government resolved to make an annual commitment to plant 1,500 trees while also employing methods to increase survivability as through the warm summer months. Varieties to be planted included Oriental planes, elms, and Arizona ash.
