Through the Care of the Urban Forest Project, we've worked with 27 Vermont towns to inventory 16,673 trees along streets and roads, in parks, and on public properties in our downtowns.
Concerned citizens who have been trained as Forest Pest First Detectors started the Regional Invasive Insect Preparedness Team (RIIPT) in 2013; this year they've created four PSA videos to spread the word about the threat of forest pests.
The Voices Project celebrates the passion, knowledge, and will of people who work hard and smart to create, protect, and manage Vermont's urban and community forests. Meet three Vermonters who work for our town forests.
