The 2022 Fall Tree Stewards Course held its Skills Workshop on the grounds of the Mohr Public Library, Johnston, RI on Saturday, October 22.  At the workshop, the students planted trees and shrubs.  They also performed routine and remedial pruning on small saplings and groupings of rhododendron and hydrangea growing at the library.  The class ended with each student demonstrating the proper way to obtain a soil sample for soil testing.
