Our work at Minnesota Equipment goes beyond selling quality gear – it’s about being your reliable partner in the field. That’s why our sales team attended the 2025 Shade Tree Short Course in Minnesota, diving deep into the tough realities of urban forestry, landscaping and tree care.
About the Shade Tree Short Course
Hosted by the University of Minnesota and the Minnesota Nursery & Landscape Association (MNLA), the Shade Tree Short Course brought together municipal workers, arborists, landscapers and tree care pros to share insights on the latest research and best practices.
The agenda was packed with hands-on learning, expert presentations and plenty of networking. Key topics included:
- Urban forestry management
- Tree health, disease prevention and pest control
- Best practices for tree care equipment and maintenance
- Sustainable landscaping and environmental impact
This training gave our team the tools to stay sharp and in tune with what’s happening in the field.
