Supporting OKNIA.org and King Estate Open Space (KEOS)
Here is what OKNIA has accomplished July 2023 - July 2024: OKNIA volunteers constructed entrance bulletin boards and incised KEOS signage (funded by a grant from Keep Oakland Beautiful) in order to facilitate better communication with park users and to indicate that the open space is not just a vacant lot.
In association with A-Plus Tree LLC and grant money from CalFire, we planted 25 native oak trees (4 species) near the 82nd Avenue entrance to the Open Space to partially replace invasive acacia trees that were removed by the City after a winter blow down.
