Plant ID Apps September 6
Learning how to identify plants takes time and practice. Luckily, we have some wonderful apps that can help you along the way! We will talk about different app options, how to use them on your phone or desktop, and the benefits of having citizen scientists help with plant identification.
Noxious/Toxic Plant ID October 4
“Leaves of three, let it be” is a popular phrase to help keep people from accidentally touching poison ivy, but this only gives a vague description of the plant.
