Expert Taking Your Questions on Upcoming Tree Walk

Residents can stroll among the fall foliage in the upcoming walk through Avondale Estates while learning about arbory, landscaping, and community nature conservation projects from local walking guides.

A conservation project sponsored by Avondale Estates Garden Club, the second annual Avondale Tree Walk will be held from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Oct. 25

Walkers will be led by local arborists including Mark Livingston, Arborguard; Gretchen Musser, Elements of Landscape Design; Neil Norton, ISA Certified Arborist; Gary Peiffer, Dekalb County Extension Agent; Steve Sanchez, HGOR; and Joan Scales, U.S. Forestry Commission.

Guides will teach walkers the benefits of trees in the community, and the tour will conclude with a panel of experts answering questions about trees or landscaping.

The walking tour will begin at the parking lot of the Avondale Community Club at 59 Lakeshore Drive, and attendees should meet there by 10 a.m.
