MOLINE, ILLINOIS (March 30, 2026) — The City of Moline and Moline Community Development Corporation is partnering for the second year to invite residents, home-owners, and community members to attend our Spring Tree Education Session focused on proper tree maintenance and pruning techniques.

The workshop, which will be held Saturday, May 9, 10AM-12PM, at Riverside Park (3300 5th Avenue), will provide practical guidance to help residents keep neighborhood trees healthy, safe, and thriving.

This session is led by a knowledgeable presenter. It will cover the fundamentals of tree care including when and how to prune trees, identifying common tree-health issues, and simple maintenance practices that can extend the life of trees and improve the appearance of yards and neighborhoods.

Trees play an important role in strengthening neighborhoods by improving air quality, providing shade, enhancing property values, and contributing to the overall beauty of the community. This educations session is designed to give participants the confidence and knowledge to properly care for trees on their property while avoiding common pruning mistakes that can damage or weaken trees.
