Tree Buds Citizen Forester

The Tree Buds Citizen Forester Program is sponsored by the Alamo Forest Partnership and the San Antonio Arborists Association with support from Bexar Branches Alliance. The goal is to teach citizens the basics of proper tree pruning for young trees while providing essential tree care to supplement the San Antonio Parks and Recreation Department’s tree-planting initiatives.  Volunteers prune trees throughout the parks to help improve their overall health and survival rate.  

The Tree Buds Citizen Forester Program takes place on the first Saturday of every month from September through May.
