Think Trees Tour
Welcome to the Think Trees Tour, an educational initiative promoting the significance of trees in public spaces and fostering environmental stewardship. Through digital StoryMaps, we aim to create a more informed community that feels a deeper connection to its local trees.
A collection of educational digital content featuring a variety of tree species in public spaces has been developed and curated to introduce tree identification to all ages.
