Engage. Observe. Connect
College and high school students and their instructors receive complimentary admissions to ArborEXPO™, as well as free lunch and top-notch giveaways! ArborEXPO™ is a great place for students to explore the possibilities and potential available to them in the rapidly expanding tree care industry. Participation allows young people to get a first-hand look at tree care skills and equipment, engage with industry leaders, and become familiar with many career options available in tree care today.
In 2024, more than 200 college and high school students from across the region enjoyed ArborEXPO™. This year, we look forward to welcoming even more young people interested in a career in arboriculture.
NOTE: students have to be accompanied by their advisor.
