Requirements
- My “What is a Tree: Learn about the functions and characteristics” course will be helpful but is not necessary to undertaking this course
- Ideally
- you will have an existing tree planting project to work on
- but if not

- You can either continue with an existing tree planting project or develop a new one as part of your hands-on learning during the course.
Description
Planting a tree might look simple: dig a hole, place the tree, cover it with soil, water it, and walk away. We see this done in community drives, school campuses, and political campaigns. But while planting is easy, establishing a healthy, long-living tree that fulfils its intended purpose is far more complex.
Too often, newly planted trees die within the first few years or survive but fail to thrive. They become stunted, stressed, or under perform, unable to provide the shade, biodiversity, or environmental benefits we expect. The reason? Planting without proper planning, preparation, and understanding.
This is where Urban Tree Planting and Establishment makes a difference.
Cities present the greatest challenges for trees: compacted soils, limited rooting space, conflicts with utilities, pollution, vandalism, and the pressure for quick results. If you can successfully establish trees in urban settings, you can do it anywhere.
In this course, you will gain both practical skills and ecological insight. You will learn how to:
-
Assess sites for optimal tree performance
-
Select the right species for specific conditions and objectives
-
Implement best practices for planting, establishment, and care
-
Avoid common mistakes that compromise tree health and longevity
You will also get a field-tested checklist to guide your projects, whether you are a homeowner, planner, landscaper, or environmental enthusiast. By the end of this course, you will have the knowledge and confidence to plant trees that survive, thrive, and deliver long-term benefits.
