If you’re a fan of the trees in our city and are interested in keeping them healthy you should sign up to become a Richmond Tree Steward.

Sign-up has begun for their annual Richmond Tree Steward class.

Richmond Tree Steward classes will begin again in January with a 10 week course that is packed with information and delivered by excellent speakers. Our hope is that the room is filled with citizens who want to join our efforts to help care for the urban forest and be a community resource. Since class size is limited, preference will be given to those who wish to become Certified Tree Stewards and volunteer with our organization.

Classes meet on Tuesday evenings from 6:30 – 8:30 p.m at the Round House in Byrd Park. There is also one Saturday morning hands-on pruning class.

Don’t wait too long. The last day for registration is November 26th. Be one of the few, one of the proud, the STEWARDS.
