planting 100,000 trees by the year 2020. In an effort to
support this ambitious goal, The Arnold Arboretum of
Harvard University, in partnership with the Boston Urban
Forest Coalition, will present a series of lectures designed to
to provide volunteers with the information and tools to help
make this goal a reality.
