 Home builders and others who are interested in preserving trees in the planning and management of their communities should mark their calendars for the Building for Greener Communities National Conference, which will be held Sept. 29-Oct. 1 at the Arbor Day Farm’s Lied Lodge in Nebraska City, NE.
On the conference agenda are several detailed presentations providing the nuts and bolts of how to integrate trees and other natural features into new developments.
Included will be case studies detailing the work of development teams that won the 2003 Building With Trees Awards of Excellence.
The agenda also includes information on a variety of related issues such as redevelopment zones and in-fill development, urban re-greening, water- and resource-efficient landscapes, maintenance, wildland/urban interface fire prevention, energy conservation and more.
