The Placer Nature Center, Placer County, City of Roseville and Placer Tree Partners collaboratde in 2009 on a grant awarded by CalFire’s Urban Forestry Unit with the goal to provide information to residents about the benefits of trees. Their efforts culminated in 200 trees being planted in the unincorporated areas of western Placer County.
The 2009 program is completed; however, Placer Nature Center hopes to offer this important program again in late 2010.
Information
Registration for one of the three free seminars are offered at the Placer County CDRA Building, 3091 County Center Drive (corner of Bell Road and Richardson Drive).
Each seminar, will cover tree selection, planting site, planting instructions, and tree care. Arborists and Master Gardeners will advise and answer any questions homeowners may have. Residents will leave the seminar not only with the tree but with the knowledge to plant and care for it as it matures in their landscape.
