Did you ever want to learn how to identify trees? Or how to properly prune a young tree to insure good development? Interested in taking care of the trees in our community? Tree Steward Classes will be held on Mondays from 6:30-8:30PM at the Byrd Park Roundhouse on Feb.4, 11, 18, & 25 and March 3, 10, 17, 24 & 31. Contact Norm Brown at (804) 646-6785 for more information.

Class topics include Tree Identification, Tree Biology, Selecting Planting Sites, Selecting Trees, Planting and Care, Health and Maintenance, and Proper Pruning Methods. Classes will be taught by area professionals in the tree care industry.

Registration is $95. Each participant is also asked to commit to 40 hrs of community service upon completion of the program.

Also, on Saturday, April 5th, volunteers will be offered training to drive the City Watering Truck. The Class will be held from 8:30AM to 12 noon at the Byrd Park Roundhouse. Pre-registration is required. Volunteers do not have to take the Tree Stewards class.

    THE LARCH.

    Emerson – welcome! LOL and I look forward to more pithy commentary from you!

    Pithy + trees. Excellent pun. I hope I don’t sound like a sap. Seasoned Greetings and Happy Hollandaise to all!

    The deadline for signing up for this class is January 20th. The class is on Manday nights beginning February 4th. It would be great to have more Tree Stewards in the Church Hill/Union Hill/Fairmount area. Anybody wanna carpool?

    The deadline for registration by mail has been moved to Jan 25th,
    registration will also be available at the door.
    The cost of the program covers the pruning tools that the Stewards will receive at the end of the program. The tools are 1 pruning saw, 1 sheath, 1 hand pruner and a safety vest. A certificate of Completion will be awarded at the end of the service hour commitment. All remaining funds will be used toward Tree Steward Projects .

    It’s not too late. You can still register for the Tree Steward Class at the door on Monday, February 4th, 6:30pm at the Round House in Byrd Park. The first class will be on the Anatomy of a Tree and Identification of Trees. Hope you can make it.

    To follow-up, I ended up signing up for this class and it has been very informative so far. If you like trees and want to know more about them, definitely take the class the next time that it is offered!

    There are quite a few East End folks taking the class, too.
