The Vermont Urban & Community Forestry Program is hosting a one-day conference in honor of Arbor Day and all the hardworking professionals and stewards that care for our community trees. Workshops are offered to enhance technical skills, discuss relevant topics in urban forestry, and network with professionals.

The conference is open to all and designed for the volunteers and municipal staff. Three simultaneous tracks offer nine workshop sessions to enhance technical skills, discuss relevant topics in urban forestry, and network with professionals. Topics include municipal tree inventories, fruit and nut tree panel, tree pest & diseases, building local capacity and more.

The conference also celebrates Vermont's Arbor Day with a proclamation and recognition of Vermont Tree Stewards Awards and Tree City, Tree Line, and Tree Campus designations.

Cost is $50 ($20 for students) and includes lunch. Registration deadline is May 5.
