This week has been full of travel: from the mountains of New Mexico, across small towns on local backroads, to Texas Hill Country.
Orion offered familiar guidance through new locales and greeted me every evening, while camping or in a bunkhouse. An old friend, Southern Live Oak (Quercus virginiana) was the star at the Women’s Tree Climbing Workshop in Wimberly.
If you’re wanting to “clip into” tree climbing or want to support an organization that does, we highly recommend WTCW. The environment was incredibly supportive, safety-focused and offered representation within arboriculture and outside of the profession.
Next week, we’ll be in Utah speaking in Day 2 of the Rare Plant Meeting, hosted by the Utah Native Plant Society, Red Butte Garden and many other organizations that support the people and plants of Utah.
We only have availability for consultations in Utah and Salt Lake Counties on March 2, so book ASAP to get on our calendar.
While we did earn CEUs at WTCW (and you can too!) no live webinars for free ISA CEU training opportunities are available this week.
