Join the Village for an Arbor Day Celebration on August 27th

The Village of Perry Tree Board will hold a special Arbor Day event on Thursday, Aug. 27, 2020, at 6:30 p.m. in the Village Park at Lake St.  All residents are invited to a tree pruning workshop, conducted by Don Gasiewicz, Wyoming County Cornell Cooperative Extension horticulture/natural resources community educator.

Gasiewicz will discuss and demonstrate the pruning of common woody ornamentals and trees in the home landscape to make you a confident pruner. Topics he’ll cover include:

• Assessing tree and shrub health.
• Why, when and what to prune
• Tools for pruning and choosing the right tool for the proper cut.
• How to prune and where to make the cuts.

Due to Covid-19, masks are required if 6-foot social distancing is not possible during the workshop.
