Tree Care
Learn proper tree care, the right way to plant a tree, how to keep trees healthy, and more.
As our summers get hotter and drier, it is even more important to make sure our trees can survive without stress.
The best street tree is one that fits well in the available space, or "right tree, right place." These trees have been selected to create a strong, healthy urban forest, and to fit within our street tree planting spaces.
Some trees are invasive, threatening the health of native habitats and humans, and adding to costs for public and private landowners.
Our 2021 ice storm was a wake up call. If your tree has been affected by a storm, make sure you are making the best choices for your tree's survival.
You can take preventative measures that will help your trees grow stronger and more resistant to storm damage.
