More about this series: These introductory plant identification walks feature an easy pace and will each last about two hours. The walks will focus on a variety of habitats, with your expert guide introducing you to common trees, shrubs, herbaceous plants, and marine algae native to our area. Leaders will share tidbits on ethnobotany, wildlife use, gardening with natives, and other interesting plant related facts. People of all ages and experience levels are welcome. Dress for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes that may get wet. Each walk stands alone, or attend them all to get a free mini-course on plant identification.
