Community Forestry is Good Business
Reprinted from the
Tree Care Industry magazine

The country’s urban forest trees deserve and require proper management to achieve the maximum environmental benefit. Some communities are fortunate enough to have a municipal arborist on staff and a professional forestry program. Others, however, rely on citizen volunteers and local arborists working. Arborists rooted in community forestry programs find common ground with local citizens and enjoy the fruits of their labor in myriad ways.

“The more people are in involved community forestry, the more they appreciate trees. They look at them in a little different light. In doing so, that bodes well for anybody in forestry or in the tree care business. The more they care, and understand, the better.” - Steve Houser
