The Ecology of Oaks
July 25, 2022 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
Free
Our native oaks are a “keystone” species that many other species rely on. There are 12 species of native oaks in Northern Illinois that fall into two groups: Red-Black Oaks and White-Bur Oaks. Sarah Michehl, Community Engagement Specialist with The Land Conservancy of McHenry County, returns to Harvard Diggins Library to present this program all about the ecology, natural history, and conservation of oak trees. Information about TLC’s Conservation@Home program will be available and advice for landowners on how to care for their land and oaks. This program is free and open to the public. Advance registration is required to attend. To sign up, send an email to adultservices@harvard-diggins.org. Members of the adult summer reading club will receive an additional badge and raffle ticket for attending.
