Become a Tree Tender in 2010!

Join Over 600 Tree Tenders Greening the City, One Tree at a Time

Friends of the Pittsburgh Urban Forest announces our 2010 Tree Tender Courses. The Tree Tender Course trains residents in basic tree biology, structure, and function, and teaches you the basics of tree planting and tree care. After completing the course, Tree Tenders work in their communities to plant, care for, and prune young trees with Friends.

The cost of the course is $40 and includes materials, a meal at each session, and a t-shirt upon completion. A reduced rate option is available for those on a limited income—Contact Caitlin for details at Caitlin@pittsburghforest.org.

Sorry, Friends cannot give refunds once you have paid for this course.

Children under the age of 18 are not permitted in the course. Please contact Caitlin if you need childcare and we can arrange on-site childcare for you.

Weeknight courses run from 5:30pm-8:30pm and include dinner. Weekend courses run from 9am-4pm and include lunch.
