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.
