Aurora Chamber Street Festival

Last weekend, P & A Urban Forestry Consulting participated in the Aurora Chamber Street Festival in the Town of Aurora. It was our first year with a booth at this festival and we were excited to see what it was like.

The forecast was calling for thunderstorms all day but all we had was a short shower in the late afternoon. We got lucky with the weather!

People traveled from all over the area to visit this festival. It was a great opportunity to meet people from further north than we would usually get to. We spoke with so many people about trees on their properties and various problems people have been having. Emerald Ash Borer was a hot topic, as many people have ash trees on their property. It was great to give out some literature and talk about some issues and solutions to these various tree problems.

The other booths at the festival were lively as well – axe throwing, bubble soccer, face painting, and tons of food. It was wonderful to meet some other small business owners in a different environment than we’re used to!
