Cut an Old Finnch to Save Storefronts
George Meyers faced the loss of his two locus trees planted about twenty five years ago beside his store. After a heavy windstorm, the largest tree near the porch was cut down to prevent damage. The tree measured over two feet across and yielded nearly two cords of wood. Meyers laments losing a pioneer anchor of Carson, estimating the tree’s age at over thirty years.
