About the Speaker:
Dr. Werboff oversees the CCU Arboretum, which covers the entire 322-acre main campus of the university. This is a project that she began with her students in 2019 to protect a 1.5-acre stand of native trees, now celebrated as the Native Species Collection. Today, the campus-wide arboretum has ArbNet Level II Accreditation and is recognized as a Tree Campus by the Arbor Day Foundation. The collection includes over 2,500 trees that can be explored in person or online through the interactive tree map on the arboretum website. Join Dr. Werboff and “Get to Know Trees” at Brookgreen!
