FIELD WALK: “Learning to Love Grasses & Sedges”, Dr. Janet Wright

Saturday, May 20, 10:00 to 11:30 AM

Why is grass greener on the other side of the fence? Maybe because it’s actually a sedge! Learn about the differences between sedges and grasses, and how to identify them, with retired ecologist Dr. Janet Wright. We’ll learn some identification tricks for distinctive coastal species of grasses and sedges that will make your field walks richer and recommend some references for further learning. Suited to ages 14 and up. Members $4, non-members $6. Includes a small hand lens. Limit of 25.
