Become a Tree Tender Online! Tree Tenders is a training program that empowers concerned residents to make dramatic strides towards restoring and caring for their local tree canopy.

Become one of the Tree Tenders, restoring and tending your part of the forest. Since 2004, the program has been supported by the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resource’s TreeVitalize initiative and continues in support of their mission to increase Pennsylvania’s tree canopy.
