Come Walk with US!

Join us for an enlightening tree walk led by our own TreesCharlotte arborist!

Have you ever thought wisteria or porcelain berry are beautiful vines? Have you heard about invasive plants but wondered what’s the big deal about them anyway? If the answer to either question is yes, please join us for our next TreeWalk on Thursday, August 20th. This upcoming TreeWalk will focus on invasive species identification. Led by our Urban Forest Educator and Certified Arborist, Heather Brent, this guided walk will take you along the greenway path where you will learn how to spot several invasive trees and vines that are outcompeting and even killing our trees around Charlotte. She will teach you how to spot them, why they are a danger to our trees, and what you can do to help. 

The event is from 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm

Tree Walk will begin at Briar Creek Greenway. We encourage you to plan to arrive 10-15 minutes early to allow time to find parking as the event will start promptly at 6:00 pm.  We will have a table to check in at the entrance of the Greenway.

Comfortable attire and walking shoes are a must. A hat and sunscreen are recommended. Please plan to expect a brisk walk through the greenway! 

*A minimum of 8 people are required for the event to occur. Registered attendees will receive at least 24 hours’ notice if the event must be canceled due to low attendance.
