Understanding Trees – Training Course
The Arboricultural Association is running a weekend training course in May, 2010 called ‘Understanding Trees’.
“This new course has been developed to help the general public
and those with a particular interest in trees, to raise awareness
of basic but essential elements of arboricultural understanding,
and to enable those with a natural interest in trees to further their
knowledge, both for their own benefit and also to help society at
large make better informed judgements on
tree-related matters.”
Date: 7-9 May 2010
Place: Preston Montford, Field Studies Centre, Shrewsbury. SY4 1DX.
Course Tutor: Julie Sadler
