Bare Trees ID
No leaves? No problem. We’ll get up close to identify 10–12 common trees using branching patterns, buds, bark, habitat clues, persistent fruits, galls, and even marcescent leaves. The walk will focus on tree ID as well as fun and fascinating natural history. Bring a hand lens or magnifying glass if you have one.
Children ages 10+ are welcome to register if accompanied by a registered adult.
