Volunteers with the Tree Board of the Town of Montreat are surveying the trees in the right-of-way along Assembly Drive. Montreat is partnering with the North Carolina Forest Service Urban Forestry Program to identify at-risk trees in an effort to develop a management plan for public trees in our community.

Volunteers received training on identifying trees and assessing risk factors from the North Carolina Forest Service. For more information contact Ann Vinson at 669-2975 or [email protected].
