PA Community Forestry Conference Aug. 6-7 In Erie

The 2015 PA Community Forestry Conference will be held in Erie on August 6-7 organized and sponsored by the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, U.S. Forest Service, TreeVitalize, PA Community Forests and Penn State University.
This year’s theme is, What’s Underground: The Key To Long Term Urban Tree Survival.”
Community livability depends on the service and health of its forest canopy. Urban forest components lead to efficiency in managing surface storm flows, but can also bring a healthful source of seasonal foods to neighborhoods investing.
This two-day conference presents ways to manage tree resilience amid the stresses urban conditions entail. Thursday will offer a full day of lectures. Friday, the conference offers a day tour of green infrastructure's role in creating the Erie regional destination.
