SUMMARY:Sick tree? Don’t panic! CE and ICMGF meeting
DESCRIPTION:Sick tree? Don’t panic!  \nSick\, dying\, and dead trees can be quite alarming to property owners and induce panicked calls to tree care professionals. Pests and pathogens are often the first assumption\, along with an assumed urgent need for pesticide application. This presentation will address common reasons why trees decline and die (with a focus on native trees in small forest and home landscape contexts)\, why pesticides are often not a good response\, the importance of a holistic approach\, and the importance of good communication and “bedside manner” to manage client expectations and be sensitive to the emotions associated with tree health problems \nwith Instructor Kevin Zobrist \nKevin is a professor with Washington State University Extension\, where he has been a faculty member since 2007. Kevin is based in Snohomish County and coordinates the Extension Forestry program in the Puget Sound area\, working with people who own forested property. Kevin has two forestry degrees from the University of Washington. His research interests include forestry education\, forest health and ecology\, and native trees. Kevin is also a Certified Forester and author of the book Native Trees of Western Washington. \nJoin us via Zoom. To attend\, please register via the meeting registration form. We will email you with a reminder and the Zoom link for the meeting as the date approaches. Thank you. \n\n\n\nClick Here to view the video
