Tree ID with Levi O'Brien

Tree Identification
Join Levi in exploring the world of tree identification! We will cover foundational skills, as well as many advanced techniques for identifying both native and non-native tree species. All levels of experience will be met with new insights. In addition to identification, we will touch on many adjacent topics including wood, horticulture, ecology, propagation, physiology, history, and much more. Come with questions and, if you want, something to take notes with.
