Who We Are

Transition Pasadena is a community action group working to connect, inspire, and support individuals and neighborhoods using the Transition Model to build resilient communities. Our members live in Pasadena, Altadena, and nearby neighborhoods including Highland Park and Eagle Rock.
Founded in 2010, our award-winning projects include Throop Learning Garden and
Repair Café Pasadena. We advocate for a more resilient city and living lighter on our Earth.
We also host talks, reskilling workshops, and other events.
Get involved by coming to our events and signing up to receive emails from us at the sign up form at the bottom of the page.

Mulch for the People

Want mulch? Got mulch?

Homeowners and tree services can now get connected for free wood chips!

Like a carpool, the more people participate, the better it works - for everyone.


Here are 3 websites to choose from,

Mulch for the People
Helping arborists get rid of wood chips. Helping everyone else get cheap mulch.

Conserving water while diverting resources from the waste-stream. Mulch for the People is a space for gardeners, arborists and city planners to share ideas.

An irony is that most Pasadenans pay to remove mulch from their properties, and at the same time Pasadenans pay to bring mulch into the city. It is kind of ridiculous! Private tree trimming companies pay approximately $50 a truckload to dump wood chip mulch at the landfill. And at the same time, gardeners are buying wood chip mulch by the bag at garden supply stores.  We know there is a better way!

Keep up to date with our initiative to inform citizens and civil servants in Pasadena to stop throwing out good mulch and to make it available from the City for the people!
