Thoreau Center tenant Friends of the Urban Forest and San Francisco's Department of the Environment have teamed up to give residents the opportunity to rent a living Christmas tree this year (like the Small Leaf Tristania pictured left) which will then be replanted in the city's medians, sidewalks, and parks after the holidays. They might not look like your traditional holiday trees, but you can think of it as a decorating challenge and rest assured that they are well suited to life in San Francisco's unique environment. Orders will be available through next Monday, December 8th. Find out more here.
