Davey’s SEED campus to take training to new heights

Editor’s note: On July 23, Davey Tree opened its new campus for a media tour that allowed attendees to explore the research and training center, as well as the facilities located on its 200-acre property. This is part two of a two-part series exploring the space.

Davey Tree’s new SEED (Science, Employee Education and Development) Campus has left no leaf unturned in its quest to turn the old Oak Knolls Golf Course and the Franklin Elementary School grounds into a high-tech facility dedicated to research, personnel training and the innovative development of tree and plant care.
