Join Knox-Lincoln SWCD and Maine Forest Service District Forester Allyssa Gregory for an exploration of the trees of Rockland Bog Preserve, a Georges River Land Trust Preserve. Maine’s forests are home to a diverse mix of coniferous and deciduous trees. Learning to identify trees is an essential step toward sustainable woodland stewardship! Participants will learn to identify tree species by looking at form, branching arrangement, buds, bark, and present foliage. Woodland appreciators should leave with a knowledge of Maine’s native trees, practical tree identification skills, and insights into forest stewardship. Join us for a woodland walk and strengthen your connection to Maine’s woodlands! Free program — Register Below!
