Trees across the state are dying from gypsy moth, drought, and emerald ash borer. Learn what communities can do in these challenging times, how the widespread mortality is impacting utilities, and how to work with your utility arborist. With us to discuss these issues will be Mollie Freilicher of DCR, Paul Sellers of Eversource, and Lance Wade from National Grid. Then, for some positive news, Dr. Ben Weil from UMass-Amherst will talk about utility cost savings and electrical grid management benefits associated with trees in the urban environment.
Join us to connect with tree colleagues and enjoy some classic diner food as we look forward to a busy spring season! Plan for an educational and fun evening, and register now - early registration ends March 6!
