3C @ 3B: Climate, community & conversations

We will hear from Temple Professor of Geography, Environment, and Urban Studies, Dr. Hamil Pearsall, Ph.D., who will speak about her research on advancing equitable urban forestry. After discussing Hamil's research in this area, we will be joined by Asha-Lé Davis, the Education and Outreach Manager for the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society (PHS), who will speak about the work that PHS is leading to implement solutions and reduce barriers to urban forestry here in Philadelphia.

PHS, an internationally recognized nonprofit organization founded in 1827, uses horticulture to advance the health and well-being of the Greater Philadelphia Region. PHS programs create healthier living environments, increase access to fresh food, expand access to jobs and economic opportunity, and strengthen deeper social connections between people. PHS’s work spans 250 neighborhoods; an expansive network of public gardens and landscapes; year-round learning experiences; and the nation’s signature gardening event, the Philadelphia Flower Show. PHS provides everyone with opportunities to garden for the greater good as a participant, member, donor, or volunteer. For information and to support this impactful work, please visit PHSonline.org.
