What:
Urban and Community Forestry is making headlines this spring. In April, USDA’s Forest Service announced the availability of $1 billion to increase equitable access to trees and green spaces in urban and community forests where more than 84% of Americans live, work, and play. This is an enormous opportunity for communities large and small, and i-Tree is here to help. We will hold two free, one-hour workshops during the first week of May for an in-depth look at what i-Tree tools can offer. We will also host online office hours to answer i-Tree technical questions. Find a shareable/printable flyer with this information here.

When:
- Benchmarking and Prioritizing Impacts – Wednesday, May 3, 1:00-2:00 pm ET This session will cover how to use i-Tree Canopy to identify what you have, i-Tree Planting to examine impact metrics, and i-Tree Landscape to prioritize your needs. Learn how to get estimates of tree canopy cover, discover priority areas within your community, and analyze the equity and distribution of canopy benefits.
