The focus of this program will be the identification of wildflowers and native trees. On our leisurely walk we will engage in general plant identification, as well as the natural history of each species, former and current medicinal uses, possible use as a human food source, its importance to animals, and how it fits into the overall ecology of the place where it is found. We will also discuss methods of constructing your own herbarium in an environmentally sensitive way. Bring raingear, as this program will run rain-or-shine.
