The Sherburne SWCD offers free technical assistance to public and private landowners with forest management and tree care questions. Consultation is meant to provide land managers and homeowners with diagnosis of the problem and options for solutions.
To better serve residents and offer added convenience, the website was developed. It contains information to assist with identification and diagnosis of the most commonly encountered tree issues in the area.
If you are in need of more assistance, you may schedule an onsite visit with a conservationist by emailing: ghugo@sherburneswcd.org.
