Los Osos

Los Osos Episcopal Church

Project Description: Lionel donated trees and helped organize a planting to establish the trees in a perimeter around the church.  Located in the windiest part of the county, the trees will eventually break wind for a distance ten times their height.  Catalina cherries, Catalina Island oaks, and Monterey cypress all do well in the near-coastal conditions of the site.  More information about the church can be found at their website.
