This workshop is designed to give participants in-depth training and
practice identifying trees by their bark and twigs. Class will begin
indoors learning basic plant morphology, characteristics, and
terminology and studying twig specimens in an interactive format. We
will then move outdoors to explore Funks Grove and practice
identifying trees by putting your new skills to work!
