Landowners in Travis County are invited to a free one-day workshop on Saturday, June 9, 9 am - 4 pm, at Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. Presentations will be given by Dr. David Appel (Texas A&M) on oak wilt prevention and mature tree care, Jeremy Hasty (NRCS) on brush and native grass management, Andrea DeLong-Amaya (Ladybird Wildflower Center) on landscaping with natives, and our own Carl Schwope on prescribed fire and protecting structures from wildfire. The target audience for these workshops is the new landowner who has purchased 10-200 acres and needs knowledge on how to manage it. For more information and to RSVP, contact
