Beyond the Basics: Planning for Urban Trees
7-8 September 2023
Cary, North Carolina
At this year's conference we will explore how arborists, urban foresters, and landscape architects and planners can create and manage our green spaces for trees in a changing climate.
As in past years, the indoor session will feature two education tracts for the concurrent sessions: one tract for arborists and one for urban foresters. These concurrent presentations will occur between the morning and general sessions.
For the outdoor session, we are organizaing a field tour of unique sites within the Town of Cary. Staff from the Town of Cary will be on hand to explain the purpose and design features of each site.
Once registration opens in June, you will have the option to register for both days or just one.
