All our trees, both shade trees and evergreens, have had a couple difficult years trying to survive under extreme drought conditions; unfortunately, some trees haven't fared well. Why do evergreens and shade trees struggle so much? In this presentation, we'll look at a variety of common problems seen in evergreens and look at management solutions. Bring your questions about trees of all kinds in your landscape for discussion. Pictures are welcome!

NOTE: At 5:30 p.m. a summer indoor potluck picnic will take place in the church’s dining area. Bring your favorite dish or two to share a bounty of great home-cooked favorites, along with a plate, cup, and silverware and be ready to begin promptly at 5:30. Cold drinks will be provided. We will need to serve, eat, and clean up before 7:00 when the program begins. With live-streaming, we need to begin exactly on time. Several volunteers are needed. Please let Arlys know if you can help with a small task for the potluck picnic.
