This day-long workshop will give participants hands-on experience assessing and chemically treating hemlocks for HWA. We will use the trees present at the workshop site to learn and practice a variety of methods to treat hemlocks available to all landowners in North Carolina. We will cover the details of chemical treatment, including:
- How to identify hemlock trees and assess their health to determine appropriate treatment
- How to select, mix, and safely apply products
- Ways to reduce off-target risks to the environment
- When to seek help from a tree care professional
Participants will be provided with a series of short videos with additional background information.
