Allergy-Free
Greening is taking Root
|
|
We recently took a poll
of top reasons people give against trees. Not surprisingly,
allergies was on the list. And maybe this is the season for
colds not allergies, but here is an interesting trend that we
couldn’t resistant sharing
—Allergy-Free
Greening.
Throughout North America, planners are creating “allergy-free parks
and schools”. Click
here to read more.

Recommendations for
Allergy-Free Greening include:
- Increasing urban
plant biodiversity
- Replacing male plants
with females where possible
- Encouraging proper
maintenance of green areas

Call out for Tree
& Signage Imagery
Do you have a great photo of trees and business signage co-existing
and doing a good job? Or a before and after where the tree was
causing a problem and now it works?
We would love to include it in an upcoming blog for the Invest From
the Ground Up campaign. We will of course provide proper photo
attribution.
Please email it to InvestInTrees@caufc.org
We'd really appreciate it!

Thanks for all you do in
support of urban forests!
