Watching Over the Old Growth Forest

We recently had arborists come to the Garden and meet with members of the committee about our forest’s needs. After walking through, it was discovered that seven dead trees needed to be removed as they posed danger to the walking paths. Several other dead branches were pruned off of trees that were also seen as potentially dangerous. As an Old Growth Forest, the well-being of our trees is very important to us, and keeping our forest clear of dead growth allows our trees to stay healthy. This kind of work is only possible through the generosity of our community. Now, we hope to continue this work and keep our Garden healthy!
