The Bowling Green Tree Commission will be hosting a class on the “What Tree Should I Plant?” on Saturday, May 11, from 9-11 a.m. at the Urban Forestry Arboretum at 1060 Pearl St. – just west of the fire station.

Do you want to plant a tree this spring but need some help deciding what to choose? Join Bowling Green’s City arborist to walk through the Urban Forestry Arboretum to discuss the pros and cons of the different trees that are growing there.

All the trees growing at the arboretum are also planted along the city’s streets and in the parks. When matched with the right site they can do well. The event is free to the public.

Contact the Bowling Green arborist at gjones@bgohio.org or419.353.4101 if you have any questions.
