Wild Ones

Are My Oak Trees In Trouble, or Not?

This Oak-tober, learn to identify, monitor, and manage oak pests and diseases such as two-lined chestnut borer, bur oak blight, oak wilt and more. (In person/online)

'Oak-tober' is a month-long celebration of all things oak-related in Illinois. Oaks are a critical part of our natural heritage but have been under attack lately. Join Illinois Forest Pest Outreach Coordinator Tricia Bethke for a  discussion on how to identify, monitor, and manage threatening and non-threatening oak pests and diseases such as two-lined chestnut borer, bur oak blight, oak wilt and other potential threats to oak trees.

The public is invited to the monthly meetings of the Lake-to-Prairie chapter of the Wild Ones, a national not-for-profit organization that promotes the use of native plants in landscapes. 

Registration is required. 

You may attend this program in person at the library, or may attend virtually/online.
