Oak Wilt Identificaiton and Prevention

August 12, 2021 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Thursday, August 12th @6pm.
No registration is necessary
Our partners at the Indian River Lakes Conservancy will be hosting a presentation at its Redwood Hill Preserve Trailside Learning Center on Thursday, August 12, 2021, starting at 6pm. Well-known naturalist, arborist, and Author Paul Hetzler will discuss Oak Wilt, a disease that affects oak trees.
Oak Wilt was first discovered in NY State in Glenville, NY in 2008. It is a fungus that is spread both above ground by beetles and under the ground by roots. Learn how to prevent and how to identify this disease. A common symptom of Oak Wilt is the discoloration of leaves starting at the top of the leaf and moving down it, with a keen-edged line that separates the brown from the healthy, green part of the leaf. If you can avoid pruning Oak trees, especially at particular times of the year, you can help prevent your trees from getting Oak Wilt.
DIRECTIONS: To get to the Redwood Hill Preserve, turn off Route 37 in Redwood at the firehouse (Stine Road). The preserve is about a quarter of a mile down the road on the right-hand side. The presentation is free to the public.
