FUNGUS AT THE MERWIN OAK

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

We were all quite alarmed when we spotted this type of wood rot fungus quickly overtaking a portion of Croton's Merwin Oak at its base--click on the photo--and made some inquiries. Artie Neff, on hand for the Fun Fall Day, told us that it had recently been treated professionally. We'll keep you posted.
