> Hello.
> I wanted to share the Spreading the Canopy guide with the members of this listserv. The intended audience for the guide is other forestry organizations from across the country to assist them in taking steps to start or deepen their work in making the tree/health connection. Trees Forever (Marion, IA), Friends of Trees (Portland, OR), The Greening of Detroit, Keep Indianapolis Beautiful, and the Sacramento Tree Foundation, each completed projects under the Spreading the Canopy program, a U.S. Forest Service funded grant, to help promote nature as key to healthy communities. You can find lessons learned, in-depth case studies, and sample materials from each organization in the Trees Forever Spreading the Canopy guide: www.treesforever.org/Canopy <http://www.treesforever.org/Canopy>.
