Class Description

Are trees a part of your life? Do you have a favorite tree? Scientists have found that healthy trees are important to the health of people and the communities around them. Still other researchers have documented the economic value of trees to homeowners, neighborhoods, and cities. Trees form the basic building blocks of ecosystems. Extension Master Gardener Nancy Davis will share how you can protect the mature trees around you and convince neighbors, politicians and even developers to do so as well. Free.

We know there is an ongoing problem with the registration process via Zoom that requires folks to double register. We create the original registration form about a month before the class is scheduled. Unfortunately, the presenters aren’t usually ready to share the class resources until the week of the class.  When we edit the registration email to add the resources, it results in forcing folks who registered before the revised mailing to re-register. Our apologies!

After you register,

  • You will receive an immediate email Zoom confirmation with the link to the class and some registration questions.
    PLEASE CHECK YOUR EMAIL FOR REGISTRATION CONFIRMATION – make sure to check your SPAM folder.
  • You will receive a reminder confirmation with resource materials the day before the class.
  • Please add events@mgnv.org and webmaster@mgnv.org to your address book, so that emails from MGNV do not go into your spam or junk folder.

Registration stays open until the end of the meeting.
