SUMMARY:Hemlock Stream Health Hike with Hemlock Restoration Initiative
DESCRIPTION:Hemlock Stream Health Hike with Hemlock Restoration Initiative\nThursday\, July 9  |  5 – 7 pm \nBRN – Elective \nFree for Arboretum Members\, non-members will need to pay the $25 per car gate fee. \nREGISTER HERE \nDid you know that hemlocks are critical for our southern Appalachian stream habitats? Eastern hemlocks shade cold headwaters\, stabilize stream banks\, and protect the insects that trout depend on. When hemlocks decline\, streams warm\, habitat shrinks\, and fisheries suffer. \nThis evening hike will weave you along Bent Creek under healthy hemlocks in an HRI Hemlock Conservation Area. While we hike\, your hike leaders will cover the ecological importance of hemlocks with a focus on their role in stream habitat. We will also cover what is threatening the hemlocks\, what is being done about it\, and more. \nThe hike is a relatively flat 2 mile out-and-back. We will plan to arrive back at our vehicles at 7pm. \nIn case of poor weather\, this hike will be rescheduled to July 15th. \nThis program will take place outside and will follow easy trails and paved walkways. Dress for the weather and prepare to be outside for the entire program time. \n\nMembers: Remember to enter your promo code upon checkout to receive your 10% member discount! Email adulteducation@ncarboretum.org with questions.\nSee a full listing of Adult Education Programs at the North Carolina Arboretum here! Questions? Check our FAQs.\nWe are committed to fostering a diverse\, supportive learning community. If the cost of a class is a barrier for you\, please complete this scholarship form and we will see what kind of assistance we can provide.\nFollow us on Facebook & Instagram!\nJoin our Adult Education Student Hub on Discord!\nInterested in supporting the NC Arboretum more directly? Donate to the ONE Fund here.\n\nSee all of our classes open for registration here!

SUMMARY:Protecting our Native Hemlocks: Treatment Demonstration
DESCRIPTION:Protecting our Native Hemlocks: Treatment Demonstration\nwith Hemlock Restorative Initiative \nON-SITE  |  Friday\, March 14  |  1 – 4 pm \nBlue Ridge EcoGardener – Elective Credit \nJoin Hemlock Restoration Initiative staff for a demonstration and workshop in the Arboretum forest to learn the fundamentals of treating hemlock trees to protect them from the invasive insect\, hemlock woolly adelgid. Designed for a general audience\, this workshop is great for homeowners who steward hemlocks on their property or for anyone interested in learning treatment basics. Today hemlock management is simpler and less expensive than ever before! \nThe objective of the Hemlock Restoration Initiative (HRI) is to restore eastern and Carolina hemlocks to their native habitats throughout North Carolina and to mitigate damage to hemlocks caused by infestation of the hemlock woolly adelgid (HWA). More specifically\, our goal is to work with a variety of partners and current restoration initiatives to ensure that eastern and Carolina hemlocks can resist the deadly hemlock woolly adelgid and survive to maturity on North Carolina’s public and private lands. \n\nMembers: Remember to enter your promo code upon checkout to receive your 10% member discount!
