Introducing the Citizen Forester Program!
The San Joaquin Valley Urban Forests Council, TreeFresno, the City of Clovis, CalFire, PG&E,  and the Fresno County Master Gardeners have collaborated to create and implement a program to train citizens in the greater Fresno/Clovis area in Urban Forestry Practices. 

The program will train participants in tree biology, tree and site selection, species identification, proper planting and pruning techniques and basic tree care. 

The program will consist of 4 classes, starting February 26th 2011, that will combine both classroom presentations and hands-on experience.
