Please join us for the GCRL Science Café presented by Mr. Larry Tucei

Mr. Tucei began documenting live oaks on the Mississippi Gulf Coast in 2006 and expanded his work to most of the southeastern United States. He has the most extensive and comprehensive catalog of live oak trees in the world. Trees are his passion and now retired, he has the time to spend doing what he loves.  Mr. Tucei is certified by the Native Tree Society and is a part of the Mississippi Champion tree and National Champion Trees Programs.

 Mr. Tucei tells his story of becoming an urban and community forestry advisor, his passion for our heritage trees, and his work documenting these majestic life forms.

The Science Café will be live in the Caylor Building, Rm. 104 at the GCRL campus and via zoom.
