PLAY ·2025 Grants ChallengeMyTreeLA: Growing Community Through Trees
MyTreeLA App is a tech-meets-community project that brings tree tracking and storytelling into the hands of local residents. Our pilot project - Roots & Fruits: Greening Jefferson Park, where 100 fruit trees, distributed by SLATC, will be tagged with a QR code linking to a living digital record. Residents will scan their tree to report health, growth, fruit yield, and share personal stories and photos. SLATC will track survivability and environmental benefits. This is citizen science, community pride, and climate resilience—rooted in South LA.
