Learn how planting a tree can provide you benefits as a homeowner and how those benefits extend to your community. A few of the many benefits to be discussed include heating and cooling benefits, property value increases, mental health gains from green landscapes, and more. Learn about tree equity and learn the score of your neighborhood. Join us at Riverside Park in Moline, IL on Sept 17 at 11:30 AM for the program.
