Dead and declining trees have proliferated throughout western Washington over the past few years as summer heat and drought has become more extreme. The iconic western redcedar has been particularly affected, causing concern for many property owners.

WSU Extension Forestry, in partnership with Sno-Isle Libraries, is offering two free public seminars to explain why trees are in decline right now. Learn what makes forests and trees healthy or unhealthy and how to recognize when there’s a problem on your property.

Topics include insects, diseases, and drought, including their environmental roles and the important interactions between them. Learn about what property owners should do (and not do) to increase tree resilience and mitigate impacts.
