Tonight’s Special Guest: Dr. Jason Newton
Discussion Topic: Have trees changed the course of history? How do historians give forests and trees agency in the stories they tell about the past? Dr. Newton will provide a brief introduction to the field of “environmental history” and explain how some historians center non-human nature in the narratives they construct.
Bio: Dr. Jason Newton is a historian and educator whose work focuses on the intersections of capitalism, labor, and environmental history in the United States. He currently serves as an Assistant Teaching Professor in the Department of History at UNC Charlotte, where he teaches courses on capitalism studies, labor history, technology, and the environment. Newton is the author of Cutover Capitalism: The Industrialization of the Northern Forest, 1850–1950, a book that examines how industrialization transformed both workers and natural landscapes in the American Northeast and was a finalist for the 2025 George Perkins Marsh Prize in environmental history. His research often explores how labor, ecology, class, and ideas of masculinity shaped industrial society in rural America. Through his scholarship and teaching, Newton combines environmental history with social and economic analysis to better understand the development of modern capitalism.

TreeMaster & TreeKeeper Classroom Training Fall 2026
2026-09-17 17:30 - 19:30 | NC
We will be hosting our TreeMaster and TreeKeeper classroom course on the evening of Thursday, September 17th. Anyone is welcome to join in if they are interested in becoming one of our amazing lead volunteers. TreeMaster class 5:30 pm-6:30 pm and TreeKeeper class 6:30 pm-7:30 pm.
For any TreeMasters who would like to train as a TreeKeeper, we invite you to join us from 6:30 pm – 7:30 pm (directly following the TreeMaster training) for the TreeKeeper classroom training session.
A TreeMaster is a volunteer who has received training on volunteer management, proper planting techniques, and care and maintenance of trees. TreeMasters serve as volunteer leaders at our planting events and TreeAdoptions throughout Charlotte. They help with event setup, tree and mulch placement, volunteer engagement, and event breakdown.
TreeKeepers join us on at our TreeCare events to help steward previously planted trees by providing pruning, mulching, stake removal, and other general tree care. TreeKeepers may come to an event with volunteers or they may join our arborist on a site visit to conduct light pruning.
How do I become a TreeMaster or TreeKeeper?
Anybody interested should attend this workshop, featuring the history of TreesCharlotte, our planting practices, and a Q&A. Training is suited for all levels of arboriculture knowledge. Upon completion of the certification course, graduates will be provided opportunities to put their knowledge into action by serving as volunteer leaders. The tree planting and care season in Charlotte runs from October to early April.
TreeMaster Training Planting
Following the training, graduates will be provided an opportunity to get hands-on experience with tree planting on the morning of Saturday, September 19th, at Realta HOA. This add-on training session is not required but strongly encouraged. For those who cannot make this planting, we will have you pair up with a seasoned TreeMaster during your first planting with us to receive additional field training.
TreeKeeper Field Training
TreeKeeper classroom graduates will be provided with an opportunity to get hands-on experience with a tree care event on the morning of Friday, September 18th, at Long Creek Greenway – Oak Hill. This add-on training session is not required but strongly encouraged. For those who cannot make this tree care field training event, we will have you pair up with a seasoned TreeKeeper during your first tree care event with us to receive additional training.
What is the time commitment?
TreeMasters and TreeKeepers are asked to commit to volunteer at a minimum of 3 regularly scheduled tree planting/adoption events annually (each about 5 hours).
