Ngomhla ziyisi-6 kuMfumfu, 2012, iCanopy, iqembu lendawo elingenzi nzuzo, kanye nelungu le-California ReLeaf Network, elizinikele ekutshaleni izihlahla zemiphakathi enempilo, bazohlanganisa ndawonye amaqembu ezinkampani kanye namavolontiya omphakathi ukuze batshale izihlahla zomthunzi nezithelo ezingu-120. Ngokubambisana ne-Microsoft Corp., i-Odwalla Plant-A-Tree, i-Cal Fire's Urban and Community Forestry Programme, kanye nezisekelo eziningana, i-Canopy izosiza ukudala amakhempasi anempilo, aluhlaza, namema kakhulu izingane ezingaphezu kuka-500 e-Brentwood Academy kanye ne-350 e-Ronald. I-McNair Academy e-East Palo Alto.
Angaphezu kuka-100 amavolontiya ezinkampani kanye nomphakathi okulindeleke ukuba abambe iqhaza ekutshalweni kwezihlahla komphakathi usuku lonke. Lokhu kutshala kuzosiza ekuqhubekiseleni phambili umgomo we-Canopy othi “Izihlahla Ezinempilo, Izingane Ezinempilo!” isinyathelo.

Izinzuzo eziqondile zifaka umoya ohlanzekile namanzi, ukuvikelwa emisebeni ye-UV eyingozi kanye nemiphumela emihle yengqondo ehambisana nokuba seduze kwezindawo zemvelo. Izinzuzo ezingaqondile zifaka indlela yokuphila esebenzayo exhumene nokwanda komsebenzi wangaphandle, okusiza ukuvimbela ukukhuluphala kwezingane kanye nesifo sikashukela sezingane.
Izinhlobo zezihlahla zomthunzi ezizotshalwa zihlanganisa i-Forest Green Oak, i-Cork Oak, i-Valley Oak, i-Southern Live Oak, i-Bosque Elm, ne-Silver Linden, zonke ezikwazi ukumelana nesomiso futhi ezisifanelekela kahle isimo sezulu salesi sifunda.

I-Bosque Elms izotshalwa kusetshenziswa i-'DriWater' isixazululo sokunisela esikhishwe isikhathi esisha esingasetshenziswa esikhundleni sokunisela okujwayelekile ukonga amanzi nokonga ezindlekweni zokuwafaka.
Emini, phakathi kwamashifu okutshala ekuseni nantambama, amavolontiya azobuthana ngaphambi kwe-Brentwood Academy ukuze kutshalwe izihlahla zomkhosi kanye nesithombe seqembu nezikhulu ezikhethiwe, abaxhasi bokutshala kanye nabameleli Besifunda Sesikole SaseRavenswood.
