ACE is proud to announce that we are adding a tree and plant watering program as our newest job training initiative. If your residential building has trees or tree planters on the property, ACE crews can care for and tend to them. In this way, you are doing more than improving the air quality and beautifying your neighborhood, you are teaching ACE program participants the rules and responsibilities of the work place and giving them valuable job skills to put on their resume.
ACE offers the following THREE YEAR service contract for watering:
- Watering the tree 2-3 times a week during the spring and summer months, and as needed*
- Repainting the planter as needed
- Ensuring the planter remains free of litter
- Pruning as needed
*Residence must provide ACE crews with access to water source.
