In honour of International Women’s Day, Tree Canada is highlighting five women who represent Tree Canada as Forestry Specialists across the country. They have generously shared stories about their proudest achievements, opportunities for women in the field, advice for women starting a career in urban forestry and inspirational figures in their professional lives.
