Arbor Day Event April 28th
The Jane Weber Arboretum Nonprofit is excited to have Bartlett Tree Experts participate in this year’s Arbor Month Celebration, April 28th, 11 AM on the front porch of the historic John Stanger House 9215 SE Old Evergreen Highway. Join George Nickols and Ryan Fay for an engaging, educational presentation focused on helping homeowners make informed, confident decisions about the trees in their landscapes. In addition to hearing from our guests we will be adding to the Don Bonker Grove as a Arbor Day Ceremony by plant a tree honoring our Volunteer of the year Anne Devereaux.
During this session, George and Ryan will walk attendees through the full lifecycle of caring for their trees—from the moment they bring home a new tree to long‑term maintenance that supports growth, beauty, and resilience. Key topics will include:
• Selecting and Establishing New Trees
Guidance on choosing the right tree for your property and ensuring proper planting techniques for a strong start.
• Maintenance and Plant Health Care Tips
Practical, science‑based advice on watering, pruning, soil management, and protecting your trees from pests and environmental stress.
• Understanding Larger Tree Risks Near Structures
How to recognize when mature trees may pose risks to homes or other structures, and when to call in a professional arborist for assessment or mitigation.
Bartlett Tree Experts is proud to support Arbor Month and has for many years been a great partner with the Jane Weber Arboretum Nonprofit. They have identified and assessed our trees and the famous Hudson Bay Old Apple at Fort Vancouver help our community cultivate safer, healthier, and more vibrant landscapes. We look forward to seeing you tree lovers there!
