ISA offers a variety of educational materials and products to help arborists improve their arboricultural knowledge and experience. Every month we will feature a product or group of products. This month ISA is featuring the TreesAreGood® (TAG) Consumer Brochures.

The newly revised TAG Consumer Brochures feature a new design and provide individual tree owners with basic knowledge of proper tree care. These educational brochures promote a greater awareness of the benefits trees provide to communities and the importance of quality care for the health of trees. English versions of the updated brochures are available digitally or printed copies can be purchased in packages of 100. Spanish and Swedish versions of the updated brochures are available digitally at www.treesaregood.org.

You can access the brochures in two differnt ways:

1 - Physical copies available for purchase. Purchase a pack of 100 updated brochures - a great tool to hand out to your customers to help educate them on key issues as well as the value of hiring a professional.

2 - Digital download. The updated brochures are also available digitally in English and a variety of other languages.

With the help of leaders in the industry, the brochures break down complicated topics, procedures and techniques and provide the information in an easily digestible format for consumers.

The brochures cover topics such as:

• Why Hire an Arborist?
• The Benefits of Trees
• New Tree Planting
• Proper Mulching Techniques
• Pruning and so much more

Additionally, the brochures equip consumers with the ability to recognize the value of trees and provide the information necessary for consumers to make informed decisions when hiring tree care providers.

They are a great tool for professionals who want to educate the community about the importance of trees, the necessity for proper tree care and the role today’s arborist play in tree care service and education.

The TreesAreGood® Consumer Brochures are available on the ISA website and be on the lookout for more language options in the future.
