Trees and Drought

Drought in the summer is hard on plants in our environment. The trees in your yard may have begun to respond to this stress. Our next knowledge walk will help you to learn how to keep your trees healthy and thriving.

Join Verna Mumby as we look at the effects of drought and climate change on trees.

This knowledge walk will be at the Airpark. Taking the trees there as a sample, we will look for signs of drought stress, and indications of healthy growth. We will examine factors such as hydrology, disease vectors and soil compaction.

We will discuss watering and other methods of mitigating stress.

Meeting location will be sent before the walk.

Bring binoculars to examine higher branches. Wear sturdy footwear and dress for the weather. We will be walking on the airpark paths.

REGISTRATION required using RSVP link below. An easy 1 km walk on a wheelchair accessible paved path.   Sorry, no dogs. This event is free, but donations are welcome.
