Thursday, February 19

Meet at Welcome Center
Members: $30 • Non-members: $35
And you thought all trees look alike in winter! Join Botanical Scientist Cynthia Skema to learn to see both the obvious as well as the more subtle characteristics that make winter tree identification interesting. The class will begin indoors with a lecture introducing essential identification techniques and a review of important winter characteristics such as bud morphology, habit, leaf and bundle scars, bark, and fruit. The group will then move outside for a stroll through the Morris to put your knowledge to work. Dress for the weather.
