Urban Forestry for Florida Communities

Almost all Florida towns and cities are blessed with trees in parks, on public grounds and along streets. The question is how can YOUR community take better care of its "urban forest" at a reasonable cost? Many of Floridas larger cities have a forestry department to handle tree management activities -planting, tree trimming, maintenance and tree removal. These cities recognize that urban tree management URBAN FORESTRY - is important. Our smaller, more rural communities recognize tree values, too, but few have an on-going forestry program. Smaller communities are usually technically and financially unable to do the level of tree management work they would like to do.
