As trees lose their green chlorophyll in the fall, we get to see the colors they've been hiding underneath all summer. Often, we can differentiate species of trees by their fall foliage or spot interloping vines that have otherwise disguised themselves in the canopy all year. This is our opportunity to work on some Tree ID in "broad strokes," getting to know forest populations from a distance through their unique mixes of color. We will also focus on other aspects of identification like leaf structure, bark, habitat, or even timing of color change or leaf drop. So come join herbalist and arborist Alex Klein for one last glorious walk amongst the trees this season as they bid us farewell.
