Overview

Join us for a guided walk through Dr. Murray Forest to learn about native trees and the seeds they produce!

About Trees and Seeds Hike

Learn about some of our unique Carolinian tree species and their seed production cycles. We will have the chance to sharpen our tree identification skills and explore seed collection and forecasting techniques. This educational hike will cross varied and uneven terrain, and will involve up to 2km of walking.
