ROOT FOR TREES

Friend me, I'm friendly!

I've recently founded a nonprofit organization called Root For Trees. Our mission is to use art and creative campaigns to raise environmental awareness. One of our central initiatives is city-wide Street Tree Signage..

If you are interested or would like to partake in some way, please email me at Jessica@rootfortrees.org

We connected months ago about working together on your initiative. I recently completed the citizen pruner course through Trees NY and have taken a bunch of street tree gardening classes. Plus I have some fun ideas for tree signage.

Are you still interested in collaborating?

Liz

PS - I created a Street Tree Groupies group on here, please join when you get a sec!

But I'd really like to get my hands dirty and learn more about how to care for trees.

I have a friend who's also on this network that would be interested in your campaign as well... her name is Jesse Smith.

I would love to help out with your campaign. Let me know what you need!
