Officials say the effects of continuing growth and development, combined with long term drought conditions, create a need to develop the Urban Forest Plan as part of Imagine Austin’s Green Infrastructure Priority Program. Board members and staff will be stationed at multiple locations around the city today and Tuesday to engage with the public on the topic of Austin’s urban forest. Residents can also provide input online through a discussion forum and short surveys. There will be a community workshop and open house from 3-7pm on August 13. Online surveys and information can be accessed atwww.austinurbanforestry.org
Join us on our journey from urban-dwelling foragers and guerilla planters to caretakers of a native plant-heavy food forest. Our intention is to learn from our surroundings and to share with others about Permaculture and Food Forest Design in Austin, TX.
