The newsletter contains technical articles, profiles of urban forestry activities in Wisconsin, resources, coming events, Wisconsin Urban Forestry Council actions and news items to help educate, train, exchange information and improve awareness of urban foresty in Wisconsin.

The solution is far more complex than planting more trees, however.

While both are important, communities that foster green infrastructure are more livable, produce fewer pollutants, and are most cost-effective to operate.
