Details
Please be aware, these classes tend to sell out quickly. If you are interested in this event, purchase your ticket NOW.
This rare remnant of old-growth forest tucked into Cobbs Hill Park is aglow with summer color in June! In addition to enjoying the seasonal show together, you will leave this class able to both identify our local forests’ major native tree species from leaves and bark, and to interpret the silent ecological stories told in trees, wherever your next hike takes you.
Please note: This trip will entail walking about three-quarters of a mile on an earth trail that is moderately inclined and potentially muddy in a few areas. Please choose your footwear accordingly. At the conclusion of class, the student and instructor will walk together back to the meeting place where class begins.
You are also encouraged to bring your own personal water bottle to stay hydrated. If you experience seasonal or general environment allergies, please consider preventative preparation ahead of class time.
A rain date for this class is scheduled for June 7th from 1:00PM-2:30PM. Students registering for this class must also be available for the rain date, and will be automatically transferred if weather prohibits class on June 6th. Refunds or exchanges will not be given if students are unable to make the rain date.
