A shade-loving man is helping the urban forest take root in East L.A.
The organization, which Mario Becerra founded in 2012 with friend Fabian Beltran, is focused on improving air quality and the appearance of neighborhoods that have been neglected over the decades. So far, the organization has planted and given away more than 5,000 trees in Boyle Heights, East L.A, El Sereno, Lincoln Heights, South L.A. and other communities.
