Public Workers Tree Seminar

Many public works employees are the ones tasked with on-the-ground tree care efforts. At NKUCFC, we provide our local public workers an informative seminar at a low cost to cover a wide range of topics relating to tree care, management, and safety. Topics include pruning, pests and diseases, invasive species, mulching, and more.

While geared toward public works employees, this event is also open to tree board members, local tree care companies, and the public. So, if you want to dive into the topic of tree care, come join us at our Public Workers Tree Seminar!
