In partnership with Finger Lakes PRISM and Monroe CCE, Genesee Land Trust is hosting a workshop at Alasa Farms focused on protecting our region’s hemlock trees. The Hemlock Woolly Adelgid (HWA) is an invasive species that is threatening the health of our forests and killing Hemlocks. Hemlocks are a vital part of the Finger Lakes landscape. 

This workshop will focus on educating folks on the threat HWA is to local ecosystems and how to identify HWA. A hands-on field survey will guide participants on how to practice detection and reporting techniques. 

Prior registration is required to ensure you receive updates about the event. Please complete the the survey to secure your spot.  

Accessibility: For questions about accessibility, reach out to Inclusion Point of Contact, Kevin Farrell, at kfarrell@geneseelandtrust.org.

Parking: There is a small parking lot at the address, where we will meet before heading out onto the trail.

Pets: Dogs, other pets, emotional support, comfort, and companion animals are not allowed at Genesee Land Trust events. Although your pet may be friendly, everyone has different familiarity and experiences with animals. Thank you for being respectful to other attendees. 

Service Animals: Service animals, which are dogs or miniature horses that are specifically trained to perform tasks for people with disabilities, are welcome. Service animals must always be under the control of the handler, housebroken, cleaned up after, and vaccinated in accordance with state laws.
