John Bornsworth, Board Certified Master Arborist and tree ecologist, wrote a long-term conservation plan for a community park in Sequim populated with native Garry oaks (Quercus garryana).
The plan described and lined out management and practical objectives for the following:
Current tree preservation through ground aeration
Soil decompaction methods
Hardscape removal and wayfinding improvements to lessen impacts on roots
Garry oak propagation methods involving youth from local schools
