Jeanne Grace, City of Ithaca Forestry Technician will provide an overview of the common ash species in our area and how to identify them. Dr. George Hudler, Cornell Plant Pathologist specializing in woody plant diseases, will talk about ash die-back and decline. Mark Whitmore, Entomologist with the Dept of Natural Resources, will talk about what to expect from Emerald Ash Borer and how to plan for the pest. The workshop is free and open to the public.
