CE Webinar: Where Will All the Trees Come From?

A great majority of the trees we see in cities today started in tree nurseries. These nurseries supply the stock, species and varieties relied upon by municipalities, landscape architects, non-profits, and conservation authorities to grow future urban canopies. The quality and availability of nursery stock directly affect a region’s ability to meet planting commitments and advance equitable canopy cover goals. Yet opportunities to align purchasing needs with production remain limited, while supply chains face constraints that restrict how quickly trees can be grown.

In this webinar, Rhoda deJonge will discuss the challenges faced by tree purchasers and tree producers alike and provide an overview of solutions for more integrated planning to assure that the diversity of quality trees is produced in numbers required to achieve our canopy goals.
