Brice June, NYSDEC Forester for Region 8
Speaking of Nature Talk
Tuesday, March 13 6:30 – 8:00pm
Muller Field Station, 6455 County Rd 36, Honeoye
Native ash trees in Western New York are being decimated by the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) beetle. An invasive species originating from Asia, this small forest insect can cause tree mortality in just 2-4 years. In February 2017, an infestation of EAB was discovered on FLCC's main campus in Canandaigua, NY. NYSDEC Forester, Brice June, was instrumental in developing FLCC's management strategy to contain the EAB infestation. Brice will share important information about EAB, how to identify signs of an infestation and options for property owners to protect their ash trees.
