Partner Event: Tree Tender Training with Tree Pittsburgh

Want to get involved with the trees in your neighborhood or community? Become a Tree Tender! Tree Tenders is Tree Pittsburgh’s flagship course that teaches you all about trees and how to become an advocate for them in your neighborhood. This course covers urban forestry practices, tree biology and health, basic tree identification, proper pruning and maintenance, and instruction on how to lead your community in organizing tree plantings and tree care.

This training has been organized in partnership with UpstreamPgh to bring Tree Tender training to the Nine Mile Run Watershed and East End neighborhoods. All are welcome to attend. As part of this course, you’ll visit a nearby UpstreamPgh green stormwater project and learn about local stewardship efforts.

This event is being offered at special community training sliding scale rate. Space is limited and registration is required. Please register through Tree Pittsburgh’s website here!
