FOR CURRENT TREE KEEPERS


Hello PVD Tree Keepers!

Here are materials and resources for your Tree Keeper work:

FIELD WORK REPORTING FORM 

    • Please enter any PCTK work you do in this simple form, so we can track the impact you’re having on our city’s trees!!!

If you prefer you can email, call or text us the pruning work you’ve done (info@pnpp.org or 401-368-5380), send it to us on a postcard, or transmit by carrier pigeon–we don’t care HOW you tell us, we just want to know about the great work you’re doing! (It doesn’t have to be too detailed: i.e. you can send us a message that says “Pruned and aerated the pits of 6 young trees this week on Elm St, between Oak Ln and Maple Ave!“)

PRUNING NOTIFICATION LETTER

This is the suggested template for notifying residents/business owners/etc. know that you are going to be pruning trees in front of their properties, and giving them a chance to “opt-out” or ask questions. ( You may also rely on verbal permission). Please use your discretion in this area, and remember that you are acting as ambassadors of the City and the urban tree community–the goal is to engage people in a positive way. Always avoid confrontation, and if in doubt move on (there are plenty of trees that need pruning in the city!)
