We offer workshops to the community nearly every month on a variety of tree-related topics. In the past, we’ve gone snowshoeing up Big Cottonwood Canyon, learned how to identify trees in city parks and focused on the art of pruning trees. We regularly partner with other organizations in the community like Wasatch Community Gardens, Cottonwood Canyons Foundation and Tracy Aviary. More information about upcoming workshops can be found below. We look forward to seeing you at one of our events! If you have any questions about workshops contact Alex Porpora (education@treeutah.org) or call (801) 364-2122.
