BROOMFIELD, Colo. – Many Coloradans plant trees in the spring because it’s the best time of year to get new trees established, and communities around the state will be hosting plantings this week to recognize Colorado’s Arbor Day – which this year falls on April 17.
FORT COLLINS, Colo. – With Colorado’s snowpack at only 65 percent of average and Red Flag Warnings again in effect throughout much of the state today, the Colorado State Forest Service reminds landowners that there’s no better time than now to prepare homes and communities for wildfire.
PUEBLO, Colo. – On April 2, foresters from around the state took an inventory of the more than 900 trees in Pueblo’s Mineral Palace Park, all at no cost to the city. The inventory was conducted by the Colorado State Forest Service as a community service project, and accomplished by almost 50 foresters in town for the agency’s annual meeting and awards ceremony.
