Glen Wilson works as Arborist for Louisiana State University Agricultural Center at Burden Center and has been at LSU for the last 10 years. Burden Center is a 450 acre LSU Ag research station located in the heart of Baton Rouge. Although Glen's main duties are the care of the historical property's trees, he is also involved with the support of a wide range of horticulture, arboriculture and agriculture research. Burden is an awesome site for arboriculture instruction and Glen uses this great facility to conduct arboriculture skills classes for the LSU College of Agriculture and Southern University's Urban Forestry Program. Burden Center is also the main facility used for the Continuing Education program for Louisiana State Licensed Arborists. Glen has been actively supporting this program over 10 years. At LSU, Glen has also been arborist instructor for the Louisiana National Guard - Youth Challenge Program and annually participates with the Louisiana 4-H Forestry.
Glen Wilson began his arborist career in 1979 working for the legendary arborist Lawrence Hall at AEP The Care Of Trees in Wheeling, Illinois. Hall's commitment to his employee's training and education left a lasting impression that has inspired Glen throughout his career.
