The Ancient Redwoods that line Highway 101 through Richardson Grove State Park are threatened by an unwarranted realignment project. Multiple conservation groups, countless local citizens and local small businesses are joined to oppose this unnecessary and expensive project. Richardson Grove is considered the entrance through the Redwood Curtain. CalTrans proposes to cut the roots of 30 old growth trees and remove 87 other trees that surround the old growth trees, and to erect a 300 foot long retaining wall. These acts will have a huge impact on the unique ambiance of the grove and endangered wildlife. We urge you to take action now to protect these Millennial Ancient Redwoods. Visit Save Richardson Grove and blog for more information; and please sign this petition that will be sent to CalTrans, the Governor, and State and local representatives. Tell your friends and family how important these Ancient Trees are for future generations to enjoy. Only 3% remains of our Ancient Forests. We can't afford to put our State's natural beauty and local heritage in jeopardy.
