Have you ever wanted to identify a tree once it has dropped its leaves? Join us to learn how using key characteristics: twigs, buds, and bark.

During this program, we will walk around the Gardens and look closely at common trees so you can develop the skills to identify them even in winter when leaves are gone. (Please dress for the weather and walking on uneven ground.)

Instructor: Julia Showalter, a lecturer on dendrology in the Department of Biology at Appalachian State University and Gardens Board Member
