Spring has arrived and the flowers are beginning to bloom! Join us to explore the wonderous world of spring wildflowers. In-classroom learning will focus on foundational botany and an introduction to the plant families we might encounter during the springtime. Visiting Arboretum sites like Victoria Woods, Wild Goose Woods, and the close to the public Nature Reserve, participants will be able to test their new knowledge with hands-on identification practice. Going “beyond the field guide” we will also explore the ecology and history of these spring-time blooms. This workshop is perfect for those looking to dive into the world of spring wildflowers and develop their field identification skills. A hand lens and wildflower field guide is recommended but not required. Registrants in attendance will receive a copy of our Spring Woodland Wildflower booklet.

*Maximum 18 adults.

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.
