Identifying Idaho's Trees

Because we have such a varied range of latitudes, altitudes, soils, and precipitation patterns, Idaho has a wider variety of native trees than most other Rocky Mountain states. The first step in caring for these trees, whether they be in a landscape or in a forest, is to correctly identify the species. Distinguishing between Idaho’s trees can be a daunting task for beginners. Through a combination of images and live samples, a 3-hour workshop titled Identifying Idaho’s Trees will help participants quickly identify Idaho’s most common native trees, including: lodgepole pine, ponderosa pine, western white pine, western larch, Douglas-fir, Engelmann spruce, grand fir, subalpine fir, western redcedar, western hemlock, pacific yew, black cottonwood, quaking aspen, paper birch and red alder. Participants will also learn about the ecology, silviculture and history of these species. This program is co-sponsored by University of Idaho Extension and the Idaho Department of Lands. It is also being held in conjunct… County Office Calendars: Benewah. Bonner. Boundary. Clearwater. Idaho. Kootenai. Latah. Shoshone. Extension Programs: Forestry. Horticulture and Garden.

Landscaping for Fire Prevention

Forest fires are a fact of life in the Inland Northwest. Homes located on forested lands (the "wildland interface") can be at high risk from forest fires. Rural homeowners can lessen that risk by modifying their houses and landscapes to make them less likely to ignite and easier for firefighters to access. This program will offer rural homeowners an opportunity to learn about such techniques, discuss their wildland fire experiences and participate in a simple exercise to assess their homes' interface fire risk. The program is co-sponsored by University of Idaho Extension's Master Gardeners, and the Idaho Department of Lands. It will be held in coordination with the Idaho Master Gardener program in Kootenai County Registration: The program can accommodate a limited number of people. Those wishing to participate should preregister at the University of Idaho Extension office in Benewah County by Friday, July 17, 2020. Cost: A $10 registration fee covers handouts and refreshments.
