Garden for the EnvironmentSan Francisco, CA
Saturday, June 20  •  10 AM - 12 PM
Overview

In this engaging workshop, learn how to get a new tree off to the right start so it can grow old, and how trees' needs change as they age.

Trees seem so eternal, it’s easy to forget that they need care in our gardens and in the built environment. Certified and Consulting Arborist Ellyn Shea has been planting and taking care of trees for over 25 years. She'll provide insights on how to get a new tree off to the right start so it can grow old, and how the needs of trees change as they age.

Note that this class is primarily for non-fruiting trees, although some information presented in this workshop may apply to most trees.


Instructor Ellyn Shea wears a number of hats as a gardener, garden coach, Certified Arborist, consultant and educator in San Francisco. Her checkered professional background includes landscaping, bookkeeping, teaching abroad and community urban forestry with Friends of the Urban Forest. Visit her at www.garden-guidance.com
