Tree Biology, Planting, and Pruning 10/18

Add to your calendar:
Do you design or manage landscapes with trees? Plant, prune, or care for them? If yes, this is the class for you. Decisions we make about trees are more successful when based on an understanding of the anatomy and biology of trees and an assessment of the site.
The class will cover how trees function as complex systems and how to use this information when selecting, siting, planting, pruning, and maintaining landscape trees. This workshop includes a classroom presentation and a demonstration in the field on pruning trees.
