Date: 
Thursday, January 23rd, 2025 12:00 PM to Thursday, February 13th, 2025 1:00 PM
Location: 

Format: Online via Zoom

  • Instructor: Shelley Hunt
  • Dates: Thursdays, January 23, 30, February 6, and 13, 2025
  • Fee: $50 (plus HST) per person for the 4 session program.

No leaves? No problem! In this workshop, offered in a convenient Zoom setting, you will learn about the variety of tree features that are useful for identifying trees in winter. From buds and twigs to leaf scars and bark, we will take an in-depth look at the surprisingly distinctive characteristics that let us unlock the identities of trees in their dormant season. We will focus on native Ontario tree species. Optional 'homework' assignments will encourage you to get outside and observe trees in between sessions.

The program runs once a week for 4 weeks. Sessions are recorded and made available to registrants for a limited time, so you can take part even if you are not available for the live Zoom sessions.

The land where The Arboretum now grows has been home to plants and animals for thousands of years.  It was home to Indigenous peoples before settlers arrived. We recognize the Dish with One Spoon territory, the treaty lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit, and the Between the Lakes Treaty 3 lands on which the University of Guelph and The Arboretum now sit. We are honoured to work on and care for this land.
