Save the Redwoods League has secured an agreement with the Richardson family to acquire 200 acres in Sonoma County, including a nearly 35-acre old-growth coast redwood grove, directly adjacent to the Harold Richardson Redwood Reserve property the League acquired from the family in 2018. The League seeks to raise $4 million for the acquisition of two properties totaling 200 acres. Within the additional old-growth grove on this land, more than 200 trees stand taller than 200 feet, with some reaching 250 feet. This acquisition will expand the Reserve to 930 acres — a more than 25% increase in size — and serve as a protective buffer to the Reserve’s hundreds of old-growth coast redwood trees in an era of climate change. Securing these properties also opens the way for the League to realize its long-standing vision of establishing recreational access and programs at the Reserve.
We’re proud to introduce Save the Redwoods League’s new community fundraising platform, Branch Out for the Redwoods. We’ve created an easy way for you to turn your personal passions, adventures, and milestones into real impact by raising money for redwood forest protection and restoration.
