ALB Tree Surveys: Volunteers Needed!

Volunteers are needed for the upcoming Mass. Dept. of Agricultural Resources Asian Longhorned Beetle tree surveys in Boston and Springfield.

These are both street tree surveys. There will be a brief training session before the survey starts, and all the supplies you need will be provided, including binoculars (or bring them if you have them). You should bring comfortable walking shoes and drinking water.

Survey schedule:

• Boston - Sunday, Nov. 15th, 9am-11am (Rescheduled from Saturday due to inclement weather!)
  Meet at the intersection of Commonwealth Ave. Mall and Arlington St. (look for folks wearing ALB buttons)
  Co-sponsored by the Neighborhood Association of the Back Bay and Friends of the Public Garden
