Forests are a dominant feature of the New England landscape. Join instructor Karen Sebastian and the New England Wild Flower Society as we explore the history, changes in composition, and ecology of the New England forest from the Ice Age through European settlement. Learn to identify native New England trees, their habitats, and their communities. Explore the impact of natural and human disturbances on the forested landscape and learn to recognize stands of different ages. In addition to the four Tuesday sessions (October 6 – 27 from 6:30 – 8:30), two weekend field trips will be held off-site. $246 for NEWFS members, $290 for nonmembers.
