Citrus Meeting for Valley Center Area Residents with 25 or More Citrus Trees | Dec. 28

Valley Center area residents, do you have 25 or more citrus trees on your property? A newly established citrus plant quarantine area may require you to take action to protect your trees. The quarantine is a result of the initial detections of the deadly citrus tree disease called Huanglongbing (HLB) in Valley Center. Unfortunately, there is no cure for HLB – once a citrus tree is infected, it will die.

The Citrus Pest and Disease Prevention Program, administered by the California Department of Food and Agriculture, is holding a citrus meeting at the Valley Center Library on Thurs., Dec. 28 at 10 a.m. for residents with 25+ citrus trees on their property in the Valley Center area to learn more about the newly established HLB quarantine and the necessary actions to help protect San Diego County’s citrus.

When: Thursday, Dec. 28, 10 a.m.
Where: Valley Center Library, 29200 Cole Grade Rd., Valley Center, CA 92082
