Learn about Boulder’s Trees and the Urban Forest Strategic Plan: March 10 Open House
Over the past year, we’ve talked with you about trees - Boulder’s trees. The trees that line our streets and beautify our parks. Did you know that without your help Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) and other threats will likely cause the rapid decline of 25 percent of Boulder’s urban tree canopy?
Join the City of Boulder’s Urban Forestry staff at the Tree Speak Open House to talk about the plan for the future and what you can do. The event will be held at the Upslope Brewing Company, Flatiron Park, 1898 S. Flatiron Court (off Central Avenue) on Saturday, March 10 from 1 to 3 p.m.
The Urban Forest Strategic Plan (UFSP) outlines a long-term strategy for making our tree canopy more sustainable and resilient in the face of serious threats from insect pests, weather events and climate change. Learn about the plan, share your thoughts before it goes to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board for their consideration of approval, and provide feedback on how the PLAY Boulder Foundation’s Tree Trust can help our community canopy.
