Winter Twig Identification
Adult program: Winter Twig Identification
Saturday, March 16
10 a.m.–2 p.m.
This class will focus on methods of identifying woody plants in the winter by their twigs. The characteristics seen on twigs provide powerful clues to a plant’s identity. Our observations will also include organs that remain on the plant in the winter such as leaves, infructescences, and bark. We’ll start in the classroom with color images, guided keying of specimens, and a field walk to round out the day. Bring a lunch and clothes appropriate for being outside in winter weather (snowshoes will not be necessary). Instructor: Brett Engstrom, botanist. Pre-Registration required, register directly with NEWFS, 508-877-7630, or online at www.newfs.org.
Montshire members $46, non-members $56.
