For the May “First Friday” opening at Artique, owner Katie Stellpflug wants to focus on the power of natural art, specifically fruit trees in Summit County. She asked Jason Barto, executive director of reLeaf Utah -- a nonprofit that works to develop community-based tree and forest stewardship through effective partnerships, meaningful projects and informative outreach -- and volunteer Barbara Richardson, the Utah Community Forest Council’s 2016 Citizen’s Forester Award winner, to give a presentation at 6 p.m. on Friday, May 5, at Artique, 283 N. Main St. in Kamas. “I have passion for both art and the environment,” Stellpflug said. “I also feel it is important to feature local community members doing important things: in this case Jason Barto and Barbara Richardson. “Spring is a time for planting and growing, a great time to feature trees and I, too, feel that trees are the answer. Not to mention Jason is an artist himself, a nature artist with trees.” Barto, an International Society of Arboriculture-certified arborist, said there is a correlation between an artist and what he does. “Trees can be art,” Barto said during an interview with The Park Record. “I even talk about my tree-planting palette and I sometimes describe an area of work we plant on as an open canvas.” Barto said, on a macro level, his organization creates art. “We try to mix up the species of the trees, so you get different colors in the blossoms in the spring and leaves in the fall,” he said. Barto said he and Richardson will share information about tree species choices for planting in the Kamas valley and around Summit County as well as how to deal The L.A.

And our water is typically alkaline when we can get it. So, the number of trees I have on my palate that we can plant is fairly slim.” Barto will also discuss soil conditioning and amending, as well as root management. “One of the things we focus on in tree planting is to make sure the roots, the parts of the tree you can’t see, are well taken care of,” he said. “It’s like a foundation of a house. Without a strong foundation, the house will fall. That goes with the tree. If you have strong roots, the tree will survive.” I even talk about my tree-planting palette and I sometimes describe an area of work we plant on as an open canvas...” Jason Barto, Executive director of reLeaf Utah Barto and Richardson will also discuss reLEAF Utah’s Fruit Nuts program, which was instrumental in garnering Richardson the 2016 Citizen Forester Award. “There has been a nationwide trend for community gardens and someone had the idea of making community orchards a thing,” Barto explained. “Our first attempt of a community orchard, the organization that oversaw the property dissolved. We were left with five apple trees that no one could take care of.” He and Richardson decided to go in a new direction. “We thought, why don’t we take care of our existing resources,” Barto said. “There are quite a few people around the county Continued From C-3 Feinhaur will speak at museum cially in these communities that were experiencing problems due to alcohol,” he said. “I kept wondering why did the passing a law making it illegal to produce and sell alcohol not work? That was the impetus for my research.” During his research, Feinauer learned the distinction between the Temperance Movement and the Prohibition Movement. “The Temperance Movement is a 19th-Century movement that is focused on improving individuals’ spiritual lives and by resolving local problems by encouraging people to not drink,” he said. “The Prohibition movement is more of a 20th-Century animal, and is specifically tied to legislative reforms and making it impossible for saloons to operate in SUDOKU 121 News letters 122 Cheek 123 Chinese toys, for short Down 1 Some SLR displays 2 Side squared, for a square 3 Chinese secret society 4 Feature of many Broadway musicals 5 Email ending 6 1975 Jackson 5 hit 7 Autobiographical subtitle 8 Time div. 9 Actress Davis 10 Make out 11 Site of Mount Olympus 12 “__ Kapital” 13 Name of 12 popes 14 Fall mo. 15 Whole alternative, in Nottingham 16 Ecuadoran province once famous for its gold 17 Patron saint of France 21 Swing wildly 23 Island near Corsica 25 Resistance units 29 Co-star of Bea, Betty and Rue 33 Amber __ 34 Erotic 36 Parts of gals. 37 A long way off 38 Pitch indicator 39 Architect Saarinen 40 Coal-rich German region 42 Get better 43 Champagne bucket, e.g. 46 Apple variety 48 Actress Blakley 49 Cut off 52 Watch word? 54 Fed after tax evaders 55 Worked (up) 56 __ Buena, town that became San Francisco 57 Continental divide? 58 Surgical dressing 59 Castilian hero 62 Had 64 Canterbury pen 65 Bridal path 66 Wedding 67 They go by in a flash 68 Banker’s bane 69 Pres. advisory team 72 Prepares 73 It holds the line 75 Face 76 Popular pasta topping 78 Actor Wilson 79 By way of, briefly 80 Tipplers 82 Air 83 One may echo in an alley 86 Chain letters? 87 Obstructs the progress of 88 Batting positions 89 Poetic dusk 90 Surround 92 Superman player 93 It towers over Taormina 95 2012 Nintendo debut 96 Early computer language 97 __ Gay: WWII bomber 100 West Yorkshire city 102 Sprightly dances 104 Italian wine center 107 Frolic 108 Cap site 109 Retired fliers 111 Winery sight 112 Manhattan sch. 114 Patch grower 115 Gym unit Rebekah Stevens Jason Barto, executive director of reLeaf Utah, will give a talk on Friday at Artique and discuss his work with fruit trees. who have apple trees who may have grown tired of taking care of them.” He and Richardson adopted those trees. “We take care of them by removing the turf around the bottom to give them a healthier root zone,” he said. “We also condition the soil and give them a proper pruning. We also do some organic integrated pest management.” The apples harvested from the trees are divided into four categories. “The best apples are donated to the Christian Center of Park City food bank, and at the Community Action Food Bank in Kamas,” Barto said. The B-list apples go to reLEAF Utah volunteers. “Those apples usually have a blemish or two, but are still good apples,” Barto said. The C-list apples go to local livestock. “They are donated to horses, chickens and goats, and I think to pigs and ducks,” Barto said. The D-list apples are put into local compost piles. “The program has doubled in size over the past few years and much of that has to do with Barbara’s participation and passion for the program,” he said. “Barbara is an awesome lady.” Richardson, a local author who has been a landscape designer for more than 20 years, said the award was a surprise, and that she is looking forward to the presentation at Artique. “The idea isn’t to honor me,” Please see Artique, C-5 communities. So, the saloon itself became the target of these laws that weren’t simply trying to reform the individual.” Another important distinction between the Temperance Movement and Prohibition is that Prohibition outlawed the making, transporting and serving alcohol, but not drinking it. “The Temperance movement specifically focused on helping the individual not consume alcohol,” Feinauer said. “So what’s interesting to me is the idea of trying to reform a system as opposed to trying to reform an individual’s personal behavior.” Feinauer said the same sentiment resonates in modern American life and culture. “It’s also how certain activists continue to approach reform today,” he said. “Prohibition blazed the trail for that type of activism.” Historian and journalist J.J. Feinauer will present a free lecture about Prohibition at 5 p.m. on Thursday, May 4, at the Park City Museum, 528 Main St. The lecture is presented in conjunction with the museum’s exhibit “Spirited: Prohibition in America.” For information, visit www. parkcityhistory.org. |
