Native New England Shrubs

Description

Saturday, July 30, 9:30am-12pm
Native New England Shrubs. Take a close-up look at nine or ten shrubs that occur naturally in New England, plus a few non-native invasive species. We will focus on key identification characteristics while learning about shrub natural history and lore. We will study a shrub whose fruits can be used to make candles, a shrub whose berries prevented scurvy on long sea voyages, and a shrub whose flowers have been used as a remedy for craziness. $13/$10 plus site admission. Registration required at 207-646-1555 x116 or suzanne@wellsnerr.org.
