2022 The Garden Club of America Zone VI Fellowship in Urban Forestry
How Does Community Stewardship Impact the Survival of Planted Trees?
Lorenzo will explore the interactions of socioecological factors that influence the survival of recently planted trees. Researching how community stewardship regimes impact the outcomes of tree-planting initiatives, the project will center on a multiorganizational collaborative urban-forestry project in northwest Indiana. Findings will provide actionable metrics and data to on-the-ground stakeholders seeking to wisely use limited urban-forest resources.
