On this one mile hike, we will meet some of Maine’s common trees and learn how to tell them apart from each other. Along the way, we will collect leaves and create a “Tree of Trees” to help us identify the trees we are seeing around us!
In partnership with the Jefferson Public Library, this event is a learning opportunity for children on summer break. We will discuss the basics of tree biology and identification, answering questions like: What trees grow in Maine? Where do different trees live? How does a tiny sapling become a towering tree? How do you tell different trees apart from each other?
This event is free to attend, but registration is required. The Wild Child Series is designed for children 6 years-18 years, plus supervising parents.
Capacity is limited, so we kindly ask that only the amount of adult family members necessary to supervise attending children register for this event.
