SUMMARY:Winter Tree Identification
DESCRIPTION:(DC) (Rhizome) Need a reason to get outdoors this winter? Are you wondering what trees do in the cold? This class will explore the biology and identification of trees in winter. Class is divided into two sections: 10:30am to noon will be held indoors (in-person) to learn about the characteristics that are useful for winter tree ID. We’ll look at samples and photographs during this portion\, then move outdoors to apply the skills to wild and cultivated trees from 12:30 to 2:30. \nThe focus will be on trees that are common in the DC area\, with the hope that participants will later be able to identify some of the same trees around the city and watch them transition into spring.
