Hello Everyone!
The long hot summer is passing and we are entering our cooler, colourful fall season. This is what is on tap by Wilmot Horticultural Society and Let's Tree Wilmot for September and October.
This is a wonderful time to plant trees. Sponsored by the Nith Valley EcoBoosters and Let’s Tree Wilmot, a project of Wilmot Horticultural Society, a free webinar, Let's Talk Healthy Trees: from the roots up! is on September 29th from 7:15 to 8:45 p.m. Our speaker Sarah Taslimi, a local Landscape Architect and Arborist with over 9 years of experience, will explain the importance of trees, how to select the right tree and put it in the right location, planting guidelines, and how to maintain a healthy tree that will have the most benefit for you and the least amount of stress.
