Identifying the Hardwood and Softwood Trees of Southern New Hampshire

June 20 @ 8:30 am - 11:00 pm

Join Naturalist and author Tom Eid for a presentation, discussion, and on-site tree identification program.

Learn the basics and refine your skills for tree identification. Burley Farms is home to a diverse and healthy Appalachian Oak-Pine Forest. We will discuss habitats and growth characteristics and spend time outdoors exploring the local woods.

The session is in 2 parts. Part 1 is an interactive presentation. Part 2 is in-the-field, hands-on, tree identification. Attendees can work individually or in small groups to identify the primary hardwood and softwood trees at Burley Farms.

No previous tree identification or experience required.
