Home Lawn Trees: March 2008 Archives

Here's your chance to take part in the "growing" TreeVitalize movement,
a program designed by Pennsylvania's Department of Conservation and
Natural Resources (DCNR) to increase Southeast Pennsylvania's tree cover
and the benefits that trees offer us all. Join us for 9 hours of
hands-on training that will cover tree biology, identification,
planting, proper care and working within your community.

The course is being offered on weekday evenings at five different
locations, and is designed for lay people and experts alike. The course
