Join the event for door prizes, Forester and Pesticide credits, and an opportunity to chat directly with experts. Parking will be available on the dirt road and the tour will start right on the nearby paved road. No registration required.
A staffed information table will be available for those who want to stop in and just learn the basics. Rain date is 8/25/25 and updates will be posted here.
