They have also grown seedlings from the oldest tree in the world, the bristlecone pine Methuselah. When New York Times journalist Jim Robbins came upon Milarch’s story, he was fascinated but had his doubts. Yet over several years, listening to Milarch and talking to scientists, he came to realize that there is so much we do not yet know about trees.Classes/Training00000111Jill231-946-7290events@horizonbooks.comhttp://www.horizonbooks.comFREE1Traverse CityMIHorizon Books243 East Front Street44.7515-85.69420bookstore, trees, David Milarch2012-03-30 14:55:02Saturday May 5, 20122:00 pm135<_VenueID>00AACTMAD Annual Meeting2012-05-05 15:00:002012-05-05 18:00:0000000-00-00Annual meeting at 3pm.
