Southside Trail Pruning Workshop

Postttted: December 7, 2011

Calling all Tree Tenders!

Come sharpen your pruning skills with us as we work to prune trees along the South Side Trail!

Over a hundred trees have been planted between 4th and 10th Streets, and they're all in need of our pruning prowess to help them grow tall and true!

We'll keep you toasty with warm drinks, but it's likely to be cold so bring your mittens and your long johns.

Please note: Due to the technical knowledge required for proper tree pruning, only graduates of the Tree Tenders program may register for this event.
