Join Tom Ingersoll of Ingersoll Land Care for this four-session class. This course is designed for the amateur or professional horticulturist, who might not necessarily be first to climb 100 feet up a northern red oak or wrangle the chainsaw to fell a 36” dead American elm. Learn the basics of tree biology and identification, the tree’s role in the ecosystem, proper selection, siting, planting considerations, pruning of young trees, fertilization, pest identification and when to call in the certified arborist. The goal of this class is to empower horticulturalists to better understand the largest plants in the landscape.
