Join the Ranks of the Dallas Citizen Foresters!

If you are interested in learning more about trees and are willing to volunteer to help care for and maintain the public trees in your town, then being a Citizen Forester is for you!

The Dallas Urban Forest Advisory Committee (UFAC) is now accepting applications for the Citizen Forester training class. Sign up today and reserve your spot for the 2015 Citizen Forester program. The program starts mid to late August and will feature six Saturday classes held throughout the summer and autumn. The location, times and topics can be obtained by contacting The Dallas Urban Forest Advisory Committee. There is a contact link at the bottom of the page for the Citizen Foresters Team Lead.

Where Would We Be Without The Master Naturalists?

Nowhere, that's where; and probably 3-years farther behind than we already are. Check out the Dragonflyer, the North Texas Master Naturalists newsletter.

Note: The following is an example article from an older Dragonflyer:
Steve Houser, Speaker For Our January Monthly Meeting We will all get a treat at our January Monthly Meeting, Wednesday, January 3. 2007, as Steve Houser, with Arborilogical Services, who is also a NTC Master Naturalist, will give a presentation on the Texas Tree Trails program, a long time approved project/activity for our Chapter. During his presentation, Steve will show us how to properly measure a tree.
Texas Tree Trails are planning a training session in January or February for our new volunteer members who enjoy trees and would like to help preserve them. They will teach new volunteers how to properly measure and how to identify common local trees. They do not have a date yet. Keep your eyes and ears open for an announcement on the training.

The DFW Region Master Gardeners

Some of our most prolific volunteers come from the ranks of the Tarrant Co and Dallas Co Master Gardeners' Associations. Well educated in the botanical sciences and also very willing to serve their communities and fellow man. Not only do they volunteer their services to Texas Tree Trails and other worthy causes but also have a full schedule of educational opportunities provided by Master gardeners on their event calendar that complement our agenda the year around.
