PEEC News:

Tree pruning can keep trees healthy and beautiful, but improper pruning can leave a tree weak and detract from the landscape. Join Laural Hardin at the Los Alamos Nature Center 1:30 p.m.-3 p.m. Sunday, May 15, to learn the basics of pruning ornamental and fruit trees. She also will cover important questions to ask professionals before they prune one’s trees.

Laural Hardin is a certified arborist and integrated pest management specialist who specializes in diagnosing and solving tree and garden problems. With an interest in helping people understand the natural balance in the landscape, Laural teaches us how to avoid most issues by learning to see the root cause. She loves to share her knowledge with hands-on workshops and fact filled talks—so come prepared to learn!

This class costs $10. Pajarito Environmental Education Center (PEEC) members can take the class for a discounted rate of $8. Advance registration is required.
