Instead of chemically treating hemlock trees, volunteers will be combating hemlock woolly adelgid by supporting the work of the FRA at their research facility in Waynesville, where they are breeding HWA-resistant hemlock trees.<\/p>\n<p>Volunteers will complete tasks in FRA\u2019s greenhouse and nursery to help with their selective breeding program. Volunteers will also get a tour of the facility by researcher Ben Smith and learn about their efforts to restore hemlocks. This is a great opportunity to help hemlocks without handling insecticide.<\/p>\n<p>Registration is required. Fill out the form on our event webpage by Tuesday, June 10th to register. Please contact Ayla Busch at &#x76;&#x6f;&#x6c;&#x75;&#x6e;&#x74;&#x65;&#101;&#114;&#64;savehe&#x6d;&#x6c;&#x6f;&#x63;&#x6b;&#x73;&#x6e;&#x63;&#46;&#111;rg or 828-252-4783 with any questions.
