Up North Insights: Building Stronger Community Forestry Connections
Community forestry looks different across Michigan, and local perspective matters. Join ISA Michigan for this Municipal Month webinar featuring James Tregear, a certified arborist and urban forestry professional based in Negaunee, Michigan.
