Parents in the Prospect Heights Park District are celebrating the award of the Urban & Community Forestry Grant administered by The Morton Arboretum. Graft Tree Care, a qualified contractor, was chosen to complete the inventory and management plan, with the purpose of preserving and protecting existing trees, improving the understanding of the urban forest's composition and structure, and increasing the health and growth of the urban forest. The grant will be beneficial to the entire community, as a healthy ecosystem will improve quality of life for all. The grant will also provide an opportunity for improved management and care of the urban forest both in the short and long term. Parents in the Prospect Heights Park District can be proud that their community was awarded the Urban & Community Forestry Grant. This grant will ensure that the urban forest will be cared for and maintained, providing a healthy ecosystem and improved quality of life for all.
