Dr. John Ball

Dr. Ball is a perennial Minnesota arboricultural favorite. He has authored over 120 articles concerning arborist safety, pruning, plant health care and diagnostics to name only a few. Dr. Ball has been around the world speaking about a huge variety of arboricultural related topics. This is his third time speaking at a RAW event, we guarantee you will not be disappointed.

Gary has been a member of Univeristy of Minnesota’s faculty since 1992, an International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Certified Arborist and former landscape design/build business owner and superintendent of grounds for Illinois Wesleyan University since 1988.
