All of San Antonio

In 2017, the Tree Heroes of San Antonio demonstrated remarkable community spirit by joining forces to save 31 magnificent trees from demolition. Recognizing the deep-rooted value of these trees as living symbols of the city's heritage and natural beauty, these dedicated donors spearheaded efforts to transplant them to Hemisfair. 

Now gracing Hemisfair, these rescued giants stand as enduring testaments to the power of collective action and environmental stewardship. Their presence enriches the park's landscape, offering shade, beauty, and a reminder of the Tree Heroes' commitment to preservation. Thanks to their foresight and generosity, these trees will continue to flourish and inspire for generations to come, embodying the lasting impact a united community can have on its environment.
