Riverside and Cal Fire will be on hand to share the latest information including treatments that can save your trees.

These experts will discuss the studies, provide details of their findings, and be there to answer your questions:

  • Bret Hutchinson— ISA certified arborist, UC Riverside
  • Cheyenne Borello— Forester for CAL FIRE, San Diego
