Join us or pass this invitation along to friends. We will hold an all-Spanish Home Tree Care 101 class, partnering with the nonprofit Defensores de la Cuenca and their Tree Ambassadors.
Embajadores de los Árboles (tree ambassadors) is a Spanish-language workforce training program that pays participants to learn about trees, help find hosts/locations for trees in urban settings and shepherd the success of the trees over three growing seasons. Find out more about the Tree Ambassadors at this link.
If you would like to attend on Nov. 18 or have questions, please email us at info@conservationmontgomery.org
The class is free and open to all who can attend.
Home Tree Care 101 classes, organized by Conservation Montgomery, are supported by a community grant from the Montgomery County Government.
We are proud to partner over the coming year with Defensores de la Cuenca.
