Trees are a valuable asset to nature, but their value is often overlooked in urban settings. The six-day, 18 session virtual Urban Tree Conference for industry professionals and avid gardeners will cover all aspects of urban tree planning, implementation and management. 

Trees don’t heal, they seal and Horticulture Educator Ryan Pankau will discuss all the mechanisms at play as trees work to seal over wounds and compartmentalize rot.

Registration opens November 13, 2020.
