About this Event
Citizen Forester 101 Training
Join us for our newly formatted Citizen Forester 101 Training-now with two engaging sessions! We’ll start with an online class on Thursday, August 21 at 6:00 PM, followed by a hands-on training session on Saturday, August 23.
Citizen Foresters are the foundation of Louisville Grows’ Urban Forestry Program! Through this training, participants learn how to restore and maintain Louisville’s urban forest. The online session will cover basic tree anatomy and physiology, environmental stewardship, and leadership skills for guiding volunteers in proper tree planting. The in-person session will allow you to practice your new skills, plant trees, and work alongside fellow community members.
Training is open to individuals of all abilities, ages 12 years and older. All trainees receive an instructional manual, a Citizen Forester t-shirt, and a light lunch during the Saturday session. Seating is limited.
This training is also open to current Citizen Foresters who would like a refresher course on leading volunteers and getting their hands in the dirt again.
