Date: August 12, 2025
Time: 2:00 p.m.
Location: Saluda Library
Speaker: Jason Llano, Board Certified Master Arborist and the owner of Optimal Arboriculture
This presentation aims to educate property owners on the benefits of trees, while also providing resources to help identify potential risks and health concerns that may increase the likelihood of tree failure or decline. We will explore best practices for tree care, focusing on how these can enhance tree health and reduce risk, as well as how poor tree management can contribute to raising risk and decline.
Jason Llano is a Board Certified Master Arborist and the owner of Optimal Arboriculture. He holds both Tree Risk Assessment and Prescription Pruning Qualifications from the International Society of Arboriculture. Jason is passionate about tree risk mitigation, tree preservation, and empowering property owners with the knowledge of proper tree care practices.
The Saluda Library Speaker Series programs are made possible thanks to our partnership with the Polk County Public Libraries Systems.
