Learn how to identify trees throughout all the seasons with a local naturalist and tree enthusiast! It may be surprising, but winter is an excellent time for learning tree and shrub identification. The absence of leaves allows one to take a closer look at distinctive features that often get overlooked — like buds, bark, and tree structure. This walk will be stop-and-go and outside the entire time, so please dress for the weather!
Throughout winter, BEAT’s Programs Director, Chelsey Simmons, will be leading two tree walks each month in collaboration with TOURISTS. These walks will take place on a Wednesday and Sunday on the TOURISTS property in North Adams, beginning at noon, and are free with the option to donate to BEAT.
Space is limited. Registration is required.
