Proceedings of the second national urban forestry conference

Abstract

The National Urban and Community Forestry Leaders Council and the American Forestry Association believed it was time to reconvene the nation's urban foresters. It had been four years since the first National Urban Forestry Conference was held in Washington, DC. The ideas, excitement, and energy of those that attended this second conference were a convincing demonstration of the grass-roots desire for the conference. The willingness of the sponsors demonstrates the depth of the urban and community forestry movement. The proceedings of the Conference have been compiled in this volume in order to share the Conference with those that could not attend. The Conference and the proceedings replicate the life cycle of urban and community forestry. The planning process, success stories, grass-roots action, economic values, wildlife, recreation, education, and funding sources of the urban forestry movement are all captured in black and white.
