A Tree Walk

Join us and explore the trees of Sebastopol with a focus on evergreens— both broad-leafed and conifer. We will depart Sebastopol's downtown Plaza at 9:00, walk at a good pace to the bike path near Analy High, stopping at specific locations to identify trees in gardens and public spaces. A plant list will be provided. Walkers will be introduced to many tree species: heritage trees, California natives, Sebastopol natives, and introduced varieties. Plant “geek” and former Plant Identification teacher, Virginia Anderegg, will share easy ways to identify trees. We will cover 3 to 4 miles with several planned stops to identify and appreciate the rich flora of our town, and return to the Plaza by 11:30. Wear sunscreen, a hat and walking shoes. Bring water and a snack. Leader: Virginia Anderegg, Botanist
