Support the Richardson Grove Sign Restoration.
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has a plan to widen and realign Highway 101 at Richardson Grove to accommodate the largest commercial trucks on the road. Caltrans would cut down trees and destroy the roots of ancient redwoods causing substantial, irreparable damage to the trees.
The redwoods of Richardson Grove represent the last standing giant ancient redwoods in the world, they are irreplaceable: once destroyed they are gone and they will not be replaced by equivalent trees for millennia.
EPIC and our allies know that by working together, we can stop this destructive project and protect this threatened ancient redwood grove.
The iconic "SAVE RICHARDSON GROVE" sign, painted in 2010, has stood to alert drivers of the impending harm to these ancient redwoods. It's long overdue for restoration. We've commissioned Sashi Moskowitz, the daughter of the original artist, Stu, to restore the piece.
Your contribution helps restore this beloved landmark and continue to raise awareness of this harmful project.
