This is a time for arborists
and climbers to not only refresh the knowledge
they may not use every day but to learn the new
techniques, innovations and knowledge that are
constantly being discovered and enhanced. The
PTCA Seminar & Field Day has had some of the
top speakers and minds in the field of arboriculture
from across the country! Visit past seminars &
field days below.
In
arboriculture, you either move forward or fall
behind!
What are you or your tree
service doing?
