Join NOSC to learn how to identify winter twigs!

Are you interested in plant identification? Have you wondered what the bare twigs you see throughout winter will grow into? Join us as we host winter twig identification courses in both Clallam and Jefferson counties. We will discuss plant identification methods suitable for winter, when you cannot immediately identify plants by their leaves or flowers.

On Thursday, January 23rd, we will meet at the Lyre Conservation Area in Clallam County in partnership with the North Olympic Land Trust. On Thursday, February 6th, we will meet at the Illahee Preserve in Jefferson County in partnership with the Jefferson Land Trust. We will cover the same material in each class. Please RSVP as space is limited.
