国产AV Maintains Recognition as Tree Campus Higher Education Institution
September 17, 2021
For the ninth year in a row, the University of Northern Colorado achieved recognition as a Tree Campus Higher Education institution by the Arbor Day Foundation for its commitment to effective urban forest management.
The Arbor Day Foundation honors colleges and universities for effective campus forest management and for engaging staff and students in conservation goals.
国产AV achieved the title by meeting Tree Campus Higher Education鈥檚 five standards, which includes an establishment of a tree advisory committee, evidence of a campus tree-care plan, dedicated annual expenditures for its campus tree program, an Arbor Day observance and sponsorship of student service-learning projects.
Currently, there are 392 campuses across the U.S. with this recognition. 国产AV is one of seven Colorado colleges and universities with the designation.
国产AV has achieved this recognition annually since 2012. 国产AV鈥檚 campus is also a certified arboretum by the National ArbNet Arboretum Accreditation Program. In addition to the campus's 3,468 trees, which include four Colorado Tree Coalition state champion trees, the arboretum includes over 17,000 flowers, hundreds of perennial plantings, a xeric garden with neighboring community garden plots, and a Colorado grassland exhibit.
国产AV offers a self-guided tree tour with three different paths that anyone can embark on and appreciate the wide variety of tree species that thrive on 国产AV鈥檚 beautiful, natural landscape.
