IDENTIFYING TREES BY THEIR BUDS - December 3, 2006
Offered by Friends of Fresh Pond Reservation
These events are FREE and open to the public.
Children are welcome in the company of an adult.
IDENTIFYING TREES BY THEIR BUDS
Date: Sunday, December 3
Time: 1:00 to 3:00 pm
Location: Maynard Ecology Center
Basement of Neville Place
650 Concord Avenue, Cambridge
Look closely at tree branches in the winter, and you will discover that the buds of each tree species are unique and easy to recognize. During this program you will use twig charts outside to identify a variety of trees, then indoors you will have an opportunity to make your own twig chart using real twigs. All materials will be provided. Please register!
Please register for each event that you plan to attend. You will receive information on parking after you register. E-mail Elizabeth Wylde at friendsoffreshpond@yahoo.com or call (617) 349-4793 and leave your name and phone number.
Friends of Fresh Pond Reservation is collaborating with the Cambridge Water Department on a project to control the spread of the invasive plant Purple Loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) in wetlands and on shorelines of the Reservation. You can read about this biocontrol project on the Water Department website at: http://www.cambridgema.gov/CWD/purpleloosestrifebiocontrol.cfm
