What is happening in Vermont to make trees and green spaces more accessible for people with physical limitations? The Vermont Urban & Community Forestry Program’s own Urban Forester, Adam McCullough, had firsthand experience creating a universally accessible path in Montpelier’s Hubbard Park in his former position as City Arborist.
Spring has sprung and the Vermont Urban & Community Forestry Program is looking for more tree champions for the Vermont Big Tree List. This novelty list celebrates the largest known trees nominated in the state.
On behalf of the Vermont Urban & Community Forestry Program (VT UCF), the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission (CCRPC) is excited to announce the 2024 Community Tree Planting Program.
The recipients are 12 different organizations and volunteer groups connected with community growing spaces at community gardens, community farms, schools, housing communities, non-profits, and more – serving people across Vermont.
