Restoration & Beautification Projects
The Martin Luther King Jr. and National Farm Workers Day are held every year to commemorate and uphold the vision of past community leaders and take charge of caring for La Madre Tierra. In honor of these Civil Rights leaders, we coordinate a day of restoration, beautification, and education in the local neighborhood. Through partnerships with county officials, nonprofits, and local stakeholders, we are able to provide immediate attention and improvement to local parks while also providing a space for residents to build community.
We love all outdoor spaces, including our parks! If you would like to join us in caring for them by volunteering at our next event. Please email us at info@mujeresdelatierra.org.
Martin Luther King Jr. Monument
The Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Tree Grove Monument is the first and only formal monument dedicated to Dr. King created by Mujeres de la Tierra. To create a permanent and long-lasting space at the Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area, Mujeres de la Tierra founder, Irma Muñoz, collaborated with Los Angeles County officials and local organizations to design and install the monument in just 9 months.
