Looking for Tree Ambassadors for Pinehurst

Green Seattle Partnership is working with the Seattle’s Office of Sustainability and the Environment to start a residential and street-scape property tree program called the Tree Ambassadors.  Tree Ambassadors will work in our neighborhood to help support and create tree canopy through a wide range of projects and outreach activities.  The goal of the program is to help as many residents as possible plant the right trees in our yards and parking strips, and to help educate about species that shouldn’t be growing in our yards.

Tree Ambassadors will be trained in the basics of urban forestry, leadership and community organizing. Tree Ambassador will work in teams of 2-3 people to develop projects for our neighborhood which could include tree walks, invasive species removal workdays, and/or tree plantings. No previous tree experience necessary, only a desire to learn and a passion for urban greenery. Both the team and individual applications and more information can found be online at seattle.gov/trees/treeambassador.htm. Applications are due April 24.
