REGISTRATION OPENS JUNE 8, 2026

While you work, hear from scientists from the Illinois Natural History Survey Herbarium and the Carl R. Woese Institute from Genomic Biology. Learn how scientists from the mid-1800s through today have collected, cataloged, and preserved botanical samples. View a selection of artifacts from the INHS herbarium collection and take a nature walk through Busey Woods to gain inspiration for creating your own herbarium notebook.
