Triage and Recovery of Small Trees Toppled by Storms
Publié
2022-10-25Hurricane Ian felled many trees on ECHO’s Global Demonstration farm in southwest Florida. A tree blown over by strong winds can be recovered if most of the roots remain attached to the trunk. Tim Motis shared ECHO's step-by-step process that ECHO successfully used following Hurricane Irma, and have implemented after Hurricane Ian as well. The process could apply to other storm-affected areas and be adapted based on available materials. Some of you have your own techniques and experiences with downed trees. Please share your experience, knowledge and ideas with the ECHO Community!
