Jan's Favorite Trees at Rosecliffe

Plants_trees_008

Greetings,

I hope you are all doing well. I included you on this list because I know that many of you have an interest in Rhode Island's arboricultural and horticultural traditions. Whether you have one tree in your backyard or you consider the entire State as your forested playground, I would like to personally invite you to a presentation of which I will be a participant. Jan Armor, a well respected photographer who shares our passions for trees, and healthy urban living will be presenting some of his best work in an introduction to a broader discussion involving the varied approaches to preserving our older trees.

Kelby Fite, a researcher from the F.A. Bartlett Research Facilities will present new research concerning biochar, a new organic soil amendment that holds a great deal of promise in our efforts to protect our aging tree population.

YOU MUST CALL TO REGISTER. Please see the press release below for more information. I hope to see you there!

Your fellow Tree Hugger,
Chris Fletcher
