The cost is $10 for general access to all sessions and $50 for those seeking Continuing Education Units for access to all sessions. This session theme is focuses on trees for pollinators and evergreen identification. 

9 AM: People, Pollinators, and Trees: The Power of the Urban Forest
Trees are keystone species in a healthy ecosystem, particularly in urban settings. This program highlights the essential role trees play in supporting wildlife, especially pollinators, while enhancing the character of neighborhoods and public spaces. Participants will learn how to select tree species that provide critical habitat for birds, insects, and other wildlife, and develop a basic understanding of the benefits trees provide to the people who inhabitant communities. Presenter: Emily Swihart, Illinois Extension horticulture educator

This session equips participants with species-level ID skills, insights into stress tolerance, and management strategies for common problems for evergreens in Illinois landscapes, including emerging pests, site incompatibility, and abiotic stress. Learn how evergreen traits can inform decisions for planting, pruning, and diagnosing decline. Presenter: Sarah Vogel, Illinois Extension horticulture educator
