Citizen Pruner Workshop

Saturday, June 23:
9:30 to 3:30 PM in Elora.

Last summer in
Elora/Fergus we ran a very successful Citizen Pruner program, with volunteers
pruning around 150 trees. Not only did
we help those trees avoid more drastic pruning down the road, but we offered
up a very successful – and popular –  volunteer
program. 

Join us for a Citizen Pruner
Workshop on Saturday, June 23 in Elora.  Find out everything you need
to know to implement this innovative program in YOUR community. You will learn
how to equip your volunteers to safely prune young
trees.

The workshop will
include:

1. A presentation from certified arborist
   Chris Morrison (of Storm Water Forestry)  to equip volunteers with
   information about how at tree grows and how to properly and safely prune a
   tree,
2. how we organized the program
   and,
3. field practice with Chris, pruning some local
   trees.

See you there!
