Oak Trees on Cañada Road Fund

Oak Trees on Cañada Road Fund

It doesn’t take long for a good idea to take root in Woodside!

More than 25 years ago, Noel Perry and a host of community activists raised the funds needed through the Woodside Community Foundation to plant more than 300 Oak Trees along Cañada Road. These stately trees now provide a glorious living canopy over Cañada Road.

After taking part in the planting back in 1991, then sixth graders Katie Nolan, Kate Connor and Julie Williamson wrote “A Recipe for Beauty.”
