American Beech Trees are a major component of our hardwood forests, providing amazing habitat and shade. With the spread of Beech Leaf Disease on island, many of these old stands have sickly leaves and declining health. Join our Seasonal Botany Team and Restoration Project Manager Coleman Miller to see the affected trees and understand what NCF is doing to understand and test management options for this new pathogen.
