GLC CELEBRATES OAKTOBER
             

The majestic oak savannas and woodlands of Walworth County are disappearing. Only 17 percent of oak trees that were here prior to European settlement remain. You can help preserve and replace these oak trees by participating in the Conservancy’s Oak Tree Sale, and/or Heritage Oak Contest.
