SUMMARY:The Little Crafty at the NC Arboretum
DESCRIPTION:The North Carolina Arboretum\, The Big Crafty\, and ArtsAVL are excited to announce The Little Crafty\, a new\, intimate craft market celebrating regional artists\, nature-inspired making\, and the creative spirit of Western North Carolina. \nTaking place Saturday\, February 7 and Sunday\, February 8\, from 1–6 p.m. in the Arboretum’s Auditorium\, The Little Crafty will feature a carefully curated group of artists whose work draws inspiration from the natural world — botanicals\, landscapes\, wildlife\, and the handmade traditions of the Blue Ridge. \nFramed by the Arboretum’s living collections and winter landscapes\, The Little Crafty invites visitors to engage with art that grows from nature meeting craftsmanship\, and the event is timely for warm Valentine’s Day gift-giving. \nThe weekend’s artists echo the imaginative\, nature-forward ethos of the Arboretum’s current exhibition TROLLS: A Field Study by artist Thomas Dambo\, creating a dialogue between art\, environment\, and community. \nAdmission: The Little Crafty is free to attend\, but there is a parking fee for The NC Arboretum. As part of the celebration\, Sunday\, February 8 will be a free Community Day\, with the Arboretum’s parking fee waived to encourage broad community participation.

SUMMARY:Hemlock Treatment Demonstration at the North Carolina Arboretum
DESCRIPTION:The Hemlock Restoration Initiative (HRI) is hosting a demonstration of chemical treatment methods to control the invasive hemlock woolly adelgid (HWA) on Friday\, March 14th from 1pm to 4pm at the NC Arboretum\, located at 100 Frederick Law Olmsted Way\, Asheville\, NC. \nHemlock trees in western North Carolina are an important and irreplaceable component of our forests. These trees have been suffering for over two decades from hemlock woolly adelgid (HWA)\, an invasive insect that can kill the tree in as little as four years. \nHowever\, hemlock management is simpler and less expensive than ever before. This hands-off demonstration will be useful for landowners\, natural resource managers and tree care professionals. We will use the trees on-site to practice assessing hemlock health to determine the best treatment options\, and HRI staff will demonstrate the HWA chemical treatment methods used on national forest and state lands. These methods are available to all private landowners in North Carolina without obtaining a license or certification. We will also discuss applicator and environmental safety\, special considerations and guidance for hiring a tree care professional. \nThe program is free to the North Carolina Arboretum members\, but nonmembers will need to pay a $20 entrance fee. Registration is required by Wednesday March 13th. Visit our website for information on how to register. Email education@savehemlocksnc.org or call 828-252-4783 with questions about the event.
