The Garden Club of the Eastern Shore welcomes Arborist Scott Lussier of Oakwood Tree Care Professionals to speak on “Effective Pruning Methods & Practices” Wednesday, March 11, 2015 at 11:30 AM at the Talbot County Library in Easton. The program is free and open to the public.
Scott Lussier has twenty years’ experience in the green industry, the last six of which were spent as an arborist and a pesticide applicator at the prestigious Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, PA. Lussier led Longwood’s Arboriculture class in their Professional Gardener Training Program and taught “Planting and Transplanting Trees and Shrubs” and “How to Prune Small Trees” in the Continuous Education Program.
However, Lussier’s resume extends far beyond Longwood. He earned a degree in Forestry from Penn State University and is now one of a handful of people in the USA to have earned both accreditations, the ISA’s Board Certified Master Arborist (#PD-0358B) and ASCA’s registered Consulting Arborist (RCA #447).
He instructs classes for HACC (Harrisburg Area Community College) and Hershey Gardens and serves as a board member of the Tanger Arboretum and in the Lancaster community. In 2005, Lussier embarked on a new venture, Oakwood Tree Care Professions, Inc. which serves south-central Pennsylvania and Maryland.
