Get to know the diversity of leafy trees and shrubs that make our forests lush and beautiful! Washington is home to an amazing variety of native trees and bushes, from bigleaf maples that tower into the canopy, to the many smaller shrubs that make up the forest understory. We'll practice identifying many of these species in their natural habitat, learn about their life histories, and discuss their ecological and cultural significance. Bring a notebook and come dressed for any weather. Class will meet at the parking area by the playground at the Silver Beach Road entrance of Whatcom Falls Park.
