TREETALKS
We invite you to attend a TREETALK for a lively hour of information about what T.R.E.E. does.
A TREETALK is a one-hour opportunity for our Board Members, staff, and volunteers to meet with Community Members, potential Donors, and other interested parties to provide in-depth information about our programs, our mission, and our future. We offer a chance to take part in one of the fun learning activities that each child experiences on a day in the "Outdoor Classroom", and we answer any questions you may have.
Please contact us for more information, to register, or to get directions to any of the TREETALKS in your area.
