Roots Run Deep: Building Resilient Forests Beyond Planting Day

Join us for Roots Run Deep: Building Resilient Forests Beyond Planting Day—a hands-on webinar designed to help you nurture seedlings into mature, thriving forests. Planting trees is just the beginning; true success lies in the care that follows. Without proper aftercare, even the most well-intentioned planting projects can struggle—but with the right knowledge, you can dramatically improve survival and growth.

Led by Michelle Evans, Reforestation Programs lead at Community Forests International , this session will equip you with practical strategies to support seedlings long after they’re in the ground. Don’t let your planting efforts end with the last shovel of dirt—register today to give your seedlings the best chance to thrive!

You’ll learn how to:

• Care for successful restoration projects
• Navigate post-planting protocols that reduce shock and stress
• Determine the ideal watering frequency
• Use soil amendments and additives to boost seedling resilience

This 60-minute session includes a 40-minute deep dive followed by a 20-minute Q&A.

Perfect for land stewards, Watershed groups, municipal teams, Indigenous-led projects, educators, and anyone planting trees in New Brunswick or beyond, this webinar is hosted by the New Brunswick Environmental Network in partnership with Community Forests International and funded by the 2 Billion Trees Initiative.

Date & Time: Wednesday, October 1, 2025, at 1:00 PM to 2:00 pm ADT (via Zoom).
