Bridging Ceremony

Girl Scout Troop 5262 celebrated their Bridging ceremony in the Urban Forest. Bridging is a beloved Girl Scout tradition that honors girls’ achievements throughout the year and celebrates their “crossing the bridge” to the next Girl Scout level.

These girls planted a Toyon grove near Ellis and Edwards Streets, and even better, come back regularly to water it!

HB Trees' Arline and Matt Pohlman became active in the forestation of Huntington Central Park in 2023, when they came with their entire family to donate and plant their first tree on the west side of the Urban Forest.

Since then, the couple has planted multiple native Oak trees and plants, and added tree stumps for seating. Simultaneously, they have removed invasive weeds – especially mustard and the highly toxic Caster Bean plant – to create a mini-oasis for visitors.
