Join a staff naturalist for a guided walk through maple-dominated forests and wetlands. Learn to identify maple species before leaf-out, observe early spring changes, and explore companion plants that share these communities. This field experience emphasizes careful observation and understanding how site conditions influence where different maple species thrive.
Natural Communities & Seasonal Change is a three-part spring learning series that combines monthly webinars with guided field experiences to explore Maine’s native plant communities through the lens of seasonal phenology. The series focuses on how native trees and shrubs signal ecological change, support wildlife, and shape both natural and human landscapes. Participants will build skills in observation, plant identification, and reading the landscape as spring unfolds.
