*It’s not too late to preserve ash! *
As the Emerald Ash Borer makes its way into our forests, we have an opportunity to mitigate the loss of ash trees and help preserve ash trees for the future.
Join us to learn about strategies that landowners, foresters, conservation organizations, and community leaders can employ to promote well-adapted forests that include ash in the future. This event is perfect for landowners, foresters, and community forest managers.
