Pruning young trees is one of the most important actions you can take to help them
thrive in the built environment.  Whether in your backyard, on your front sidewalk, or in your neighborhood park, shaping young trees through proper pruning practices will help them grow healthy and strong, and prevent potential problems in the future. 

This Saturday Tree Pittsburgh will be leading a Pruning Workshop on the South Side Trail where we’ll cover important lessons such as:
