Hemlock Wooly Adelgid Workshop (Rescheduled)

The 1.5 – 2 hour workshop will be held at Bowman Lake State Park, outside Norwich, NY. The workshop will include an introductory discussion of the biology of hemlocks and HWA followed by a walk through the woods to look for HWA and report the results.

The mission of the Finger Lakes Trail Conference is to build, protect, enhance, and promote a continuous footpath across New York State. Forever!
The Finger Lakes Trail system, over 1000 miles in length, runs from the Pennsylvania-New York border in Allegany State Park to Long Path and the summit of Slide Mountain in the Catskill Forest Preserve, with branch trails to Niagara Falls, the Genesee River valley, the Great Eastern Trail south of Corning, the central Finger Lakes, and the Syracuse region. From the PA border to the northeast end of the Onondaga Branch, the Finger Lakes Trail is also the North Country National Scenic Trail. This system is built and maintained almost entirely by volunteers. Covering some of the most scenic land in New York, we welcome you to hike it, and volunteer to keep it beautiful. This site offers maps and tools for both.
