Hello. Hope everyone one is well and hanging in there. Has anyone done or been involved with the Veteran tree certification? If so, did you find it worthwhile from a personal and professional perspective? Its something Im thinking of doing partly out of interest but also to maintain my ISA cert and get enough CEUs to do the Master Arborist exam. Its also something to study towards if work drops off given whats going on. Any thoughts on it welcome. Regards Paul

I have started listing trees on the Ancient Tree Inventory and went to an Ancient Tree Forum event recently on Hampstead Heath. Anyone out there done a veteran tree management course or some such? I am located in the South East so hoping to find somewhere that does this around here. I think veteran or ancient tree conservation is becoming or has already become a major concern. I would like to get more involved in this area. If anyone wants to post pictures of ancient trees and their whereabouts on this forum, then please do. If I may be so bold. I have attached photos of a veteran Common Beech (Fagus Sylvatica) at Hampstead Heath woods. Not ancient but nice and old. I think it is important to bring up public awareness on this subject so that we can keep our most valued trees in tact for hundreds of years or more. There is a lot of technology out there being used to ensure some of our most valued trees do continue to live long and prosper.
