The workshop will consist of over one hour of classroom training on tree maintenance given by a certified arborist. Focus is on younger street and yard trees. We will discuss the care of young trees and related aspects in basic tree biology. Other topics include: the reasons for pruning, the priorities of tree maintenance, tree growth types, and safe work practices. The class will then meet outside and nearby for hands-on practice of pruning techniques.
Coffee and bagels will be served.
