Decade of the Oak: Arborist Workshop & Film Screening

Join us for an evening of learning and discussion on Oregon white oaks!

This event explores a wide range of topics essential for oak tree health and maintenance with a short film screening and an informative presentation led by ISA Certified Arborist Brian French who brings over 24 years of experience and a passion for tree preservation. Learn how to recognize signs of oak tree health issues, structural problems, and to identify common threats like pests and diseases. You’ll learn best practices for watering, mulching, and planting around oaks, as well as how to protect them from storm damage. Brian will also share valuable pruning techniques for healthy growth and discuss the vital role oaks play in supporting local ecosystems. Bring your oak tree questions for the closing Q&A. Proactive oak tree care can enhance safety and save you money in the long run.
