Visitors are invited to experience one of Astoria’s remarkable living landmarks during Tree Talk: Giant Sequoia and Coast Redwood in Oregon, a special presentation at the Flavel House Museum on Saturday, September 12, from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m.
Presented by Dan Stark, OSU Forestry and Natural Resources Extension Agent, the program will explore giant sequoias and coast redwoods in western Oregon.

Tree hugging is encouraged..
The program offers a distinctive opportunity to explore forestry and local history in the setting of one of Astoria’s best-known historic properties.
