Fungal Fruiting Bodies On and Near Trees, and What They Mean Monday, October 3, 2022 | 10:30 am to 12 pm (1.5 CEUs) Presenter: Kelly Chadwick Location: Bay 6 We will learn how to evaluate the significance of mushrooms growing on and around trees including discussion of some of the major groups of fungi encountered. This presentation will help arborists embark upon a path of greater knowledge when as - sessing fungi threats and communicating to their clients. We will also touch upon the basics of identification. Kelly Chadwick is founder of Spirit Pruners, occasional writer for Out There Outdoors and Certified Specialist of Wine. He studies and teaches identification of fungi . He spent 14 years as a region - al manager in the fine wine business and attributes his successes to not following conventional doctrine or assumptions. He started pruning 11 years ago after an inspiring course at the local college and shortly after left his corporate wine job to prune full time. Spirit Pruners now has 14 employees with a focus on understanding all the needs of a property including wildlife habitat, aesthetics, the nature of the cli - ent, and their surrounding neighbors.
