SUMMARY:Hemlock Conservation & Management- In the Path of Hemlock Woolly Adelgid
DESCRIPTION:Hemlock woolly adelgid (HWA) is an invasive insect that is killing hemlock trees and threatening the health of our forests. Although only the size of a sesame seed\, HWA will have a big impact on our forests. The good news is that there are conservation and management strategies you can implement to protect hemlock trees. This webinar will discuss short-term and long-term HWA control options\, hemlock conservation strategies\, and approaches to secure funding for hemlock conservation that have worked in other parts of the state at a watershed scale. We will also cover regional and state-wide volunteer opportunities to help slow the spread of this threat to our forests. \nMarch 8th\, 2023\n1 PM – 2 PM EST\nVia Zoom\nREGISTER  \nPresented By: \nCaroline  Marschner\nInvasive Species Extension Associate \nCaroline’s background is in general ecology\, with experience in forest\, prairie\, riparian\, and lacustrine ecosystems.
