Native Plant ID for Beginners

Description

Saturday, June 8 | 10 am - 12 pm

Explore the basics of native plant identification with instructor Robert Jennings, an expert in natural lands management and environmental sciences. Learn the proper method of scientific classification and how to use this method to aid with narrowing down plant ID possibilities. Gain an understanding of why plants are placed into specific categories and increase your confidence with how to ID unknown plants to at least the Family or Genus level. After learning some of the basics, we’ll go outside to visit the Morton Native Plant Garden to try out your new plant identification skills. We’ll explore the beauty of native plants in both an aesthetic and scientific way. You’ll walk away being able to name more of your “neighbor” plants that you encounter in your day-to-day life, which is one of life’s great simple pleasures.

Fees: Member $40, Non-Member $48
