The Youth Tree Team (YTT) employs local high schoolers as part-time interns of Community Greening, and is often the teens’ first paid-work experience. YTT members learn horticulture skills to maintain recently planted trees, conduct community outreach, as well as learn about ‘green jobs’, all while fostering environmental stewardship.
