As part of the tour, we will examine the disturbances that this forest has faced, the pressures this has put on the land, and the restoration efforts in place to protect and improve the forest and this urban waterway. Discover what trees and people can do for each other when we work together by spotlighting conscientious land stewardship in the face of difficult conditions.
