SUMMARY:Winter Weeds and Wildflowers

Join a naturalist for an indoor/outdoor introduction to winter weed and wildflower identification at our Woodend Sanctuary. We’ll also investigate seed dispersal strategies and examine plant skeletons for signs of summer insect activity\, such as insect galls\, chrysalids\, cocoons\, and egg cases.
