About the event

Join us at this workshop to learn how to identify trees in their summer state.

We'll start off by spending the morning in the classroom, learning to identify trees using leaf, bud and twig characteristics. We will work through the various keys available and practice on a collection of cuttings. In the afternoon, we will walk around Panshanger Park to put into practise the morning's learning and identify the trees.
