SUMMARY:Virtual Winter Tree I.D.
DESCRIPTION:No leaves? No problem! In this workshop\, offered in a convenient Zoom setting\, you will learn about the variety of tree features that are useful for identifying trees in winter. From buds and twigs to leaf scars and bark\, we will take an in-depth look at the surprisingly distinctive characteristics that let us unlock the identities of trees in their dormant season. We will focus on native Ontario tree species. Optional ‘homework’ assignments will encourage you to get outside and observe trees in between sessions. The program runs once a week for 4 weeks. Sessions are recorded and made available to registrants for a limited time\, so you can take part even if you are not available for the live Zoom sessions. \nFee: $50 (plus HST) per person for the 4 session program. \n* Please note that we are also going to be offering an all-day\, in-person Winter Tree ID workshop on Saturday\, Feb. 21\, 2026 (ie. you book one day or the other not both). The virtual and in-person programs are stand-alone\, independent programs\, but if you are very keen you may enjoy taking both!
