Genesee Valley: Woods Walk with Allegany Master Gardener

BELMONT, NEW YORK – Cornell Cooperative Extension of Allegany County’s Agriculture Program welcomes you to join us for our first outdoor presentation this year led by Allegany County’s Master Gardener, Dave Chamberlain. The program will be held Saturday, October 3rd at 10:00AM located at the back Genesee Valley Central School past the soccer fields. There is a parking lot that connects to the entrance of the woods and the school’s track field.

Take this opportunity to learn about the Allegany’s native tree species from your local Master Gardener, engaging in conversation, covering topics that may be new to you, along with sharing core tips to identifying trees. There will be plenty of opportunities for questions during the event.

Pre-registration is required and there is a $10 fee for the program. We will require you to sign a CCE Assumption of Risk Form prior to the walk and social distancing and masks will be exercised during the walk. In case of rain or poor weather, the event will be moved to next Sunday. If we reach capacity and cannot properly exercise social distancing we will hold a later session in the afternoon as well as the original time. Please contact Jeremy Baier, Allegany County Cooperative Extension at 585-268-7644 ext. 14, or by email jtb273@cornell.edu for details in order to attend.
