SUMMARY:Preserving Elder Trees with the RI Tree Council
DESCRIPTION:Registration required — see link below. \nElder Tree Care is probably the least understood and least practiced segment of tree management. These shortfalls are disturbing. They contribute each year to the removal of thousands of older trees that deserved a better fate. This workshop provides a basic primer on the characteristics of tree aging\, older tree needs and meeting those needs. For this exercise we will examine 100+ year shade trees\, evaluating their structure and health and for determining what measures can be taken to extend their longevity well into the future. \nA park stroll looks at tree structure and its relationship to health\, maintenance\, and performance. \nDriving and parking: Proceed along Ives Road past horse stable entrance\, look for RITree sign by stone pillars. Enter the driveway and look to the right side for parking area. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Volunteer Training with Coventry Land Trust
DESCRIPTION:Anyone interested in contributing to an ongoing volunteer project is invited to join the Coventry Land Trust for a training session on bird and vegetation counts\, as well as creating fishing line collectors out of percolation tubes. The training will be led by Jenna O’del\, Associate Wildlife Biologist. \nVolunteers will learn to carry out these biological surveys\, so that they can be equipped to contribute to the projects on their own time. Volunteers of all ages and experiences are welcome! Whether a volunteer has studied biology or history their whole life\, or doesn’t know the difference between a bug and an insect\, everyone is welcome. Survey work is needed at several of the land trust’s beautiful properties. \nEmail Virginia Streeter at vstreeter@rilandtrusts.org to RSVP. \nIf you are interested in participating in this project but are unable to attend the training session\, please contact Jenna O’del directly at jodel@uri.edu.
