Local experts will lead a walk focused on trees at Russell Park in Jefferson
on Wednesday, May 24, at 2 pm. Trees Forever’s Brad Riphagen will join Greene
County Conservation Director Tanner Sheuermann for this free walk in the park
and the surrounding streets.
The walk’s a chance to stop and notice the trees. Past tree walks have
been in rural settings, and this time we’ll look at trees in an urban environment.
We’ll talk about species, habitat, and care of trees and answer any tree-related
questions you might have.
We’ll also enjoy strolling outside on a spring afternoon with two great
guides.
This is the fifth tree walk sponsored by the Jefferson Tree Committee since
2021. We’ve held successful walks at Spring Lake, Seven Hills, Daubendiek, and
Squirrel Hollow Parks. No registration is required.
