Patton scheduled to speak at Tree Board Fall Seminar Join the Prairie Village Tree Board’s annual fall seminar on Wed., Sept. 30th from 7 to 8 p.m. The fall seminar this year will be a virtual event with Dennis Patton, Horticulture Agent at Johnson County K-State Research and Extension as the featured speaker. At the seminar titled Recommended Trees, he will discuss trees that would thrive in the Kansas City area. “Emerald ash borer, environmental conditions and maturing neighborhoods have taken a toll on our beloved trees. Replanting for the next generation is important for a healthy community,” according to him. Patton writes a weekly column about gardening for the Kansas City Star and a monthly column called “Ask the Experts” for The Kansas City Gardener. His conversational writing style and a common-sense approach toward gardening in the Midwest have made him popular with readers over the years. This virtual seminar is being sponsored by the Prairie Village Tree Board and Johnson County K-State Research and Extension. People interested in participating in the virtual seminar will need to pre-register at http:// www.johnson.k-state.edu/classes-events/ index.html. Once they sign up they will receive the Zoom link via email. The event is free to the public and there will be time for questions during the seminar.
