Winter Tree ID Hike

Winter Tree ID Hike
Get outdoors in the beautiful winter forest and ‘meet’ some of our favorite longtime residents on a Winter Tree ID Hike. Where have all the leaves gone? Is that a sugar maple? A sycamore? An oak? As you walk, learn to identify trees by the feel of their bark and, often, by their smell!

Ages 8+.
$12 Windsor Residents; $16 Nonresidents.
