Underplanting for Resilience

This spring, GLLT planted 250 Red Spruce seedlings in response to the growing threat of Hemlock Woolly Adelgid, which is expected to significantly impact our Eastern Hemlock forests in the coming years. Join Executive Director Erika Rowland on a guided hike to visit the recent plantings and learn about the vital role of Red Spruce in building a climate-resilient forest.
This easy, 1.5-mile hike follows relatively flat terrain and offers a chance to see restoration in action.  Program is free but registration is requested.
