SUMMARY:Final Season Ending Citywide Drive-thru TreeStore
DESCRIPTION:Thank you to the many Charlotteans that have registered to get trees.  Registration is now closed.  We will see you again in late September. \nThis is it. Our final Season End Citywide Drive-thru TreeStore.  We have a limited number of large maturing trees that are in need of new homes. \nWe want to thank our partnership with Duke Energy/Piedmont Natural Gas as well as Lending Tree\, the Charlotte 2020 Host Committee and the 2020 Convention Planners for making this event possible. \nTo ensure the event follows social distancing guidelines\, some details are different from our typical TreeStores\, so read carefully: \nHere’s what you need to know:  \n\nYou must pre-register for trees. Registration opens Sunday\, May 24 and closes at midnight Tuesday\, May 26.  Scroll down to below the list of species for the link.\nEach Charlotte address/household can get up to 3 trees.\nTrees will be given out on a first come\, first served basis.  Please do research ahead of time to know which trees will work best for your yard.  Links are provided below to learn more about the trees. We will not be able to answer any tree related questions at the event.\nThis TreeStore will be drive-thru only to limit personal contact. You will be expected to load your own trees and mulch. Neighbors are encouraged to work together to pick up multiple orders with one vehicle.\nAbout the trees: The trees are in 7-gallon containers\, measure 6-15 feet tall and weigh about 20-25 pounds. The mulch weighs 25 pounds/bag. As you’ll see below\, you have 10 species to choose from. Links are provided to learn more about each species; please do your homework first to ensure you’re putting the right tree in the right place.\nImportant note: TreesCharlotte typically does not distribute trees this late in the spring – newly planted trees fare better when there’s cooler weather ahead. We hope that with your love and care\, they will flourish once planted. But if they don’t\, we’ll be back in the fall with more TreeStores!\nTreesCharlotte will send a follow-up email with planting instructions – including a planting video – watering instructions and specific information about the species you select.\nTreesCharlotte’s mission is to help the City of Charlotte reach its goal of 50% tree canopy by 2050.  We\, therefore\, limit participation to residents within Charlotte city limits.  At this time\, we do not serve Matthews\, Mint Hill\, Pineville\, Huntersville\, Davidson\, Cornelius\, Mecklenburg County or other municipalities outside Charlotte.\n\nTreesCharlotte is a non-profit organization that relies on donations to be able to host events like this.  A suggested donation of $10/tree is greatly appreciated and would help us give more trees to Charlotte residents. \nThe following trees will be given out on a first come\, first served basis (registration link below opens May 24).  \nBe sure to research which tree will work best for your yard.  We will not be able to answer any questions at the event. \n\n \nBlackgum\n\n \nBlackgum – 2 available\n\n\n\n \nPrinceton Elm\n\n \nElm – 12 available\n\n\n\n \nGinkgo\n\n \nGinkgo – 2 available\n\n\n\n \nNellie Stevens Holly\n\n \nHolly – 4 available\n\n\n\n \nAmerican Hornbeam\n\n \nHornbeam – 7 available\n\n\n\n \nNuttall Oak\n\n \nOak\, Nuttall – 1 available\n\n\n\n \nOvercup Oak\n\n \nOak\, Overcup – 16 available\n\n\n\n \nShumard Oak\n\n \nOak\, Shumard – 14 available\n\n\n\n \nSwamp White Oak\n\n \nOak\, Swamp White – 2 available\n\n\n\n \nWillow Oak\n\n \nOak\, Willow – 20 available\n\n\nRegistration has closed.

SUMMARY:TreeMaster/TreeAmbassador Certification Course\, Sept. 2020
DESCRIPTION:What is a TreeMaster? \nA 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 TreeStores throughout Charlotte.  They help with event setup\, tree and mulch placement\, volunteer engagement\, and event breakdown. \nWhat is a TreeAmbassador? \nTreeAmbassadors represent TreesCharlotte at various outreach events. They are enthusiastic about TreesCharlotte and can deliver a positive and clear message about our mission. Candidates should be comfortable both talking to an audience and listening to their comments and concerns. It will be your job to help educate the public about our beautiful canopy\, the risks facing it and how everybody can help protect it. Typical events include manning a table at festivals or speaking in front of a school class. As public-facing opportunities arise\, we will equip you with an event box complete with key facts\, fun stuff to give away\, important literature and whatever else is required! \nCan I be both? \nYes! \nHow do I become a TreeMaster and/or TreeAmbassador? \nAnybody interested must attend this free online 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 with opportunities to put their knowledge into action by serving as volunteer leaders.  The tree planting season in Charlotte runs from October to early April. Outreach events are year-round. If you register\, you will be sent the link to the online course the week of the event.  \nWhat is the time commitment? \nTreeMasters are asked to commit to volunteer at a minimum of 3 regularly scheduled tree planting events annually (each about 5 hours).TreeAmbassadors are asked to volunteer at a minimum of 3 outreach events annually (each about 3 hours). \nHow do I sign up? \nYou must be at least 18 years of age and register by completing the application below.  Deadline to register is 11:59 p.m.\, Sept. 9.

SUMMARY:Opening Day City-wide Drive-thru TreeStore - Sept. 2020
DESCRIPTION:Excitement for this event was Tree-mendous and we’ve “sold out”. Not to worry\, we have plenty of Zip Code TreeStores scheduled this season covering all of Charlotte!

We are grateful for the generous support of the Women’s Impact Fund to enable us to host events like this. \nWe’ll have a big mix of species\, from small flowering to canopy building to evergreen screening. There’s something for everybody! \nDid you know that fall is the best time to plant a tree?! Fall gives your new tree several months of cooler weather so that it can concentrate on root establishment rather than leaf production.
