Meet Aaron Bettiol
Beginning my career as a nursery manager, I fell in love with trees and the stories they can tell. As a certified arborist and civic horticulturalist, I dedicate my time sharing my passion with others, helping to build relationships between plants and people. I am excited to explore the rich history of cherry blossoms and how they inspire so many people from around the world.
About Tree Talks & Walks
Tree Talks & Walks are guided tours led by local experts that focus on not just the cherry tree but the other various trees that make up our urban ecosystem. It’s an opportunity to explore Vancouver’s neighbourhoods and parks, to better understand how our trees play a vital role in our city, and to learn about the history of the land we inhabit. We invite you to take a moment out of your day to pause and appreciate the natural beauty all around us.
