In this class, you’ll learn how to examine twigs, bark, and other characteristics to help you identify trees during their dormant period. The course will include a combination of in-class lectures, instructor-led keying, and field identification at local habitats.Prior botany knowledge not required.
Class days start at 8:30am and end at 5:00PM. The first two days will be in the classroom. The third day will be completely in the field.
