Stewards and Michael Roa created a guide, Redwood Ed: A Guide to the Coast Redwoods for Teachers and Learners, for those who want to learn and those who want to help others learn about the magnificent coastal redwood environment. The focus of Redwood Ed is on the Sequoia sempervirens species and can be used throughout the coastal redwood region, from southern Oregon to Big Sur.
