Please join us to learn about what is being done to restore oaks in our Kane County ecosystems, and how you can help. Program provided by the Wild Ones of Greater Kane County.
You’ll be hearing from a presenter intimately involved with this project, which has been launched by Morton Arboretum and a long list of familiar partners. The project is part of the Chicago Region Tree Initiative.
Per their website:
Chicago’s regional forest is a critical asset that needs our protection. Trees clean our air and water, reduce flooding, improve our property values, create habitat for wildlife, and provide significant social and health benefits. In short, trees improve our quality of life.
The Chicago Region Trees Initiative (CRTI) is a partnership for coordinated action on key issues facing trees. It is the largest such initiative in the country, with leading organizations and agencies from across the seven-county metropolitan region working together. CRTI is leveraging funding, knowledge, skills, and expertise to build a healthier, more diverse regional forest.
Programs presented virtually through FB, Zoom, YouTube, and other online sources.
