New England contains a rich and unusual diversity of ferns. In this September 6 New England Wild Flower Society class at Garden in the Woods in Framingham, students discuss their significance and how to identify those most common to the region. A lecture includes slides, laminated specimens, and microscopic details. Afterward, participants explore the Garden’s extensive collection of ferns. Bring any ferns for identification. The lecture, by Don Lubin, takes place from 10 – 1, and is $40 for NEWFS members, $48 for nonmembers. Register online at www.newenglandwild.org.
