How to Hire an Arborist
This time of the year, winter storms can cause havoc. The thick layers of ice and snow combined with strong winds can break limbs and endanger the health of our trees. The services of an arborist may be needed if the tree is in need of weather-related damage assessment and pruning. Before hiring an arborist, the homeowner should have an idea of what needs to be done with the tree, how it will be done, and what precautions should be taken to protect themselves from potential future problems. The following tips are taken from a Arbor Day Foundation publication called “How to Hire an Arborist.” To see the publication in its entirety, click here.

Involving All Generations
Are you a young person who wants to carry out a planting or care project in your community? Are you a member of a community group that would like to involve more youth in your volunteer projects?  If you answered yes to either of those questions, then Trees Forever can help! 

Trees Forever supports multigenerational environmental service by connecting volunteers of all ages to Trees Forever programs, local Trees Forever affiliate groups, and to each other.  Trees Forever provides training to help affiliate groups develop their capacity to effectively involve youth in volunteer efforts.

Trees Forever's goal is to actively involve more young people in all the work we support, including planning, decision-making, and hands-on projects.
