Learn from the Experts: Summer Tree Identification

Learn to identify trees when they are fully leafed out. Environmental Education Manager Barb McKittrick will begin indoors with a review of basic plant morphology and an overview of the different techniques used to examine and ultimately identify summer trees. We’ll then head into the woodlands to examine leaves, bark, twigs, and fruit to identify a number of common native hardwood trees.
