Want to learn more about how you can increase Tacoma's tree canopy? Tacoma Tree Foundation is offering a FREE Tree Stewards Training on Saturdays in March! The 8-hour training will include 3 in-person sessions on tree selection, planting, pruning young trees, and maintaining trees. Participants will also learn how to communicate about trees with their neighbors and how to organize a tree planting event. Tree stewards will get the skills they need to get directly involved in taking local action and engaging with their communities about sustainability and stewardship. Snacks will be provided, along with an optional lunch and tree planting project on the final day. This project is funded through the City of Tacoma's Sustainability Small Grants program.
