In our area, dahlia tubers left in the ground freeze and won’t come back next spring, so digging and storing is necessary.
If the thought of digging, dividing and storing dahlia tubers feels overwhelming, this class was created for you. We’ll start with the basics and guide you through every step of the process. In this class you will learn:When to cut down your dahlias, When and how to dig and wash the tubers, Dividing the clumps of tubers, Storage medium and containers, Best storage practices, After the presentation, the class will break into small groups. Experienced dahlia growers will demonstrate to each group how to identify eyes, separate tubers and divide a clump. You will have the opportunity to see the process up close and ask questions.

Extension
Forest fires are a fact of life in the Inland Northwest. While they can be beneficial to some ecological systems, forest fires near homes located on forested lands (the "wildland urban interface") can have terrible consequences on life and property. Forest fires are not always easy to stop. But you can take action to reduce the risk of damage to your home from wildfire. Living with Fire—Forest Management and Home Preparation will help forest homeowners modify their houses and landscapes to make them less likely to burn and easier for firefighters to access.
Sara Ashiglar comes with a degree in forest management from Oregon State University and a master's in forest biology from the State University of New York-Environmental Science and Forestry. She has managed lands for the Forest Service, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Bureau of Land Management for more than 20 years as a silviculture forester and is excited to have recently joined the University of Idaho Extension Forestry team.
