Florida ISA Mission

ISA and Florida Chapter ISA members are in a position to stay informed about progress and happenings in the tree care industry. Members receive both the Arborist News and the Journal of Arboriculture, and Florida Chapter members receive the Florida Arborist, a quarterly newsletter filled with articles, news, and Chapter happenings of interest to Florida's tree care professionals. Florida Chapter ISA members also enjoy savings on educational programs and books available through the Florida Chapter.
