Field based instruction in plant identification - chiefly of trees and shrubs native to New England. Ecological requirements of species important for timber, wildlife and/or biodiversity considerations. Field trips to state and University forests/wildlife management areas to learn to recognize plants where they grow naturally on the landscape.
Open to students in the Forest Ecology concentration in the NRC department. Additional lab fees are associated with this section.
