Urban Forestry Specialist Julie Canavin will lead an introductory class on proper tree care practices on Saturday, Feb. 24, from 9 a.m.-12:30 p.m. in the Wake Forest Town Hall Ground Floor Meeting Room, 301 S. Brooks St. The meeting room is most easily accessed via the facility’s Taylor Street entrance.
Geared to the homeowner, the one-day class will cover such topics as proper tree selection, planting, pruning (including proper pruning of crape myrtles) and mulching.
This workshop provides an alternative to the Tree Steward workshop for residents who are unable to commit to volunteer service.
The cost is $15 per person and geared towards area residents ages 18 and older. Preregistration is required by Wednesday, Feb. 21, at wakeforestnc.recdesk.com.
