Put new tree care skills to the test. 

Each tree care workshop location session includes in-person, hands-on training during the time of year when tree care is applicable to apply learned skills. The day will include the opportunity to discuss local tree issues, identify needs in individual communities, and provide opportunities to learn more. Workshops are subject to change due to winter weather instances.

The final of three in-person workshop sessions is in Milan, IL, from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. on Feb. 24. The cost is $20 per session, and registration is required. Sessions are the same material, repeated and localized in multiple locations. Illinois Arborist Association continued education units are available to those who qualify. The exact location in Milan will be available closer to the event date.
