HWA is an invasive insect that kills hemlock trees. Hemlock trees are a large majority of our forest tree species and provide many ecological benefits. You can help protect hemlock trees by surveying for and reporting sightings of HWA.  \n \n \n \n The HWA Learning Series gives you the knowledge and skills to identify HWA\, understand its impacts\, and confidently survey and report your findings. The series includes a webinar\, a field trip\, and guided survey sessions. For the best experience\, participants are encouraged to attend Sessions 1 and 2 before joining the guided surveys. If you can’t attend live\, please watch the recorded webinar beforehand. After completing the training\, you’ll join our Volunteer Surveillance Network as a Land Protector—a community of dedicated volunteers committed to surveying for HWA at least once each winter and reporting observations to iMap. Surveys can be done on any public land with hemlock trees\, and volunteers may also adopt a trail through our sign-up form.

HWA is an invasive insect that kills hemlock trees. Hemlock trees are a large majority of our forest tree species and provide many ecological benefits. You can help protect hemlock trees by surveying for and reporting sightings of HWA.  \n \n \n \n The HWA Learning Series gives you the knowledge and skills to identify HWA\, understand its impacts\, and confidently survey and report your findings. The series includes a webinar\, a field trip\, and guided survey sessions. For the best experience\, participants are encouraged to attend Sessions 1 and 2 before joining the guided surveys. If you can’t attend live\, please watch the recorded webinar beforehand. After completing the training\, you’ll join our Volunteer Surveillance Network as a Land Protector—a community of dedicated volunteers committed to surveying for HWA at least once each winter and reporting observations to iMap. Surveys can be done on any public land with hemlock trees\, and volunteers may also adopt a trail through our sign-up form.

HWA is an invasive insect that kills hemlock trees. Hemlock trees are a large majority of our forest tree species and provide many ecological benefits. You can help protect hemlock trees by surveying for and reporting sightings of HWA.  \n \n \n \n The HWA Learning Series gives you the knowledge and skills to identify HWA\, understand its impacts\, and confidently survey and report your findings. The series includes a webinar\, a field trip\, and guided survey sessions. For the best experience\, participants are encouraged to attend Sessions 1 and 2 before joining the guided surveys.
