Water Wise Tree Care Workshop

Sacramento Tree Foundation

Join us to learn how to water your trees!

Touchstone Brewing Company

<p>Save water and help your trees thrive at the same time. It's possible when you learn smart irrigation techniques, the magic of mulch, and how low-water landscapes and shady trees are a perfect pair. Even with the winter rains, our summers are always hot and dry and these tips are useful every year for water savings and happy trees.</p><p>Instructor Pamela Sanchez is an ISA Certified Arborist - Municipal Specialist with over 10 years of experience teaching people how to care for trees in Sacramento as the Education Programs Manager at the Sacramento Tree Foundation. Pamela's passion for young tree care and connecting people with their urban canopy spurs her work creating educational experiences from tree care workshops to monitoring historic elms, to harvesting native oak acorns, to engaging elementary school students. She has a degree in Urban Forestry from UC Davis.</p><p><strong><strong>Please note: </strong></strong>This event is located at a brewery.
