SUMMARY:Hurricanes and Trees
DESCRIPTION:Come learn from a certified commercial arborist how to assess tree damage and how to best prepare in advance for future storms. \nHurricanes and tropical storms hit Florida almost every year\, often causing extensive damage to trees in your yard/property. But you can make your landscape more hurricane-resistant\, so that it’s less likely to suffer damage during a major storm. \nThe very active hurricane season of 2024 was particularly challenging for Tampa Bays’s urban forest. Learn from a certified commercial arborist how to assess tree damage from last summer and how to best prepare in advance for future storms. \n>>> GET TICKETS <<<
