Story

I've created this page because I believe in the power of trees, people and bicycles. If we all want a greener future we need more trees where people live in cities, and to protect trees in nature. Going places by bicycle will use fewer resources and allows us to be outdoors amongst the trees.

Your support of TREE Fund and this year's fundraising ride across California will help us educate the next generation of arborists. 

Please help me by giving whatever you can using the 'Donate' button. Thank you in advance for your generosity, I am grateful for your support.


In 2014 I pedaled in my first Tour des Trees and met Phil. Many miles pedaled, trees planted and dollars raised for tree research later we were able to xc ski together in Canada this spring!
