On August 19th at 6pm we'll be hosting a TreesCount Urban Forest Walk in Westdale with the Hamilton Sustainability Professionals Network and we'll draw a winner from among our tree story submissions that night!
Our prize pack goodies have been generously donated to the Hamilton Naturalists' Club by a number of local companies and individuals; including Coffeecology, Zenon Bee Inc., John Terpstra and Blue Oak Native Landscapes. We thank them all for their generous support!

If you'd like to attend our TreesCount Urban Forest Walk: Register via the SPN Eventbrite page. That night I'll be describing the protocol we've been using to measure and assess the health of over 900 trees (and counting!) and presenting some preliminary data about how Westdale's urban forest measures up! Certified Arborist, Kyle McLoughlin, will be taking us on a walk around Westdale and will talk about some current urban forest policy and management issues. All are welcome to attend this event and to join the SPN afterwards for networking at the Snooty Fox!
I look forward to hearing your tree stories!
