Winter Tree ID
Workshop at DCP
Trees are all around, yet many do not know a maple from an oak. As many
trees lose their leaves in the winter months, this only adds to the
difficulty. Join a naturalist on Saturday, November 26th at 10am at
Shawnee Prairie Preserve Nature Center for an informative program to
learn how to identify a tree in the winter months through bark, twig,
and growth patterns. The workshop will finish by heading outside to
practice the newly learned skill. Registration is requested for this
free event. For questions about this or any other park district
programs or to register for the class, please call 548-0165.
