Please join the Washington County Master Gardener Association for this February talk on tree identification. Identifying trees can be a challenge, especially without a guide that focuses on the trees in and around our Pacific Northwest urban areas. That all changes after today!

Arborist, author, and educator Casey Clapp will discuss his new tree identification book “The Trees Around You” and how he’s aiming to change the way people see trees where they live, here in the Pacific Northwest. He’ll cover why tree ID is important, his stepwise journey of tree ID, which aims to demystify the process, and will cover what makes his new guide perfect for the urban dendrologist.

* Class is approved for 1 hour of Continuing Education credit for MG Perennials.
