Greetings from beautiful British Columbia, and welcome to my Tour des Trees 2023 Fundraising site.

This year's 450 mile route from Reno Nevada to coastal Half Moon Bay CA will mark my 19 th tour to support Tree Research and Education.  Way back in 2003, I planned to ride once and then cross it off my bucket list. BOY WAS I WRONG. After one Tour I was hooked on the riding, the camaraderie, and most of all the opportunity to keep raising money to support TREE Research through the Canadian TREE Fund.  Being a retired utility arborist, and past-president of the Pacific Northwest Chapter of the International Society of Arboriculture, I still appreciate the benefits of tree research and education in our communities. Ultimately, everyone benefits by living amongst healthier, safer trees, within a vibrant urban forest..

Please support me in my efforts to raise more than ever before for TREE Research. Funds raised are granted out annually by the Canadian TREE Fund to support worthy projects coast to coast, and in partnership with the International TREE Fund to support The International Jack Kimmel Grant that impacts tree research around the world. All pledges are followed up with registered charitable tax receipts. To further acknowledge you and others who contribute to the fund, we will be including your donor information in a multi-levelled recognition program via the Canadian TREE Fund newsletter and website.

THANK YOU for your support. It all counts!  Phil.
