SUMMARY:Beginner’s Tree Ecology & ID: Conifer Edition
DESCRIPTION:Pining to spruce up your evergreen knowledge? This is the class fir yew!\n\n\nWhen the bare branches of winter start to get you down\, turn to the conifers for a breath of fresh\, pine-scented air. More ancient and more steadfast than the deciduous divas of autumn\, our native coniferous trees like red cedar and black spruce deserve a spotlight too. On this walk\, we’ll acquaint ourselves with several common species\, learn what to look for to tell a spruce from a cedar or a hemlock from a pine\, and discuss the fascinating ecology and evolutionary history that sets these trees apart. \nPlease dress for the weather and bring water. This class is entirely outdoors. Participants should expect to be traveling about 2 miles on pavement\, gravel\, or flat trails for the full duration of the class. \nMeet in front of the Farm Barn Orientation Center for check-in.

SUMMARY:Orchids Under the Wolf Moon
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this after-hours program scheduled to highlight January’s full moon over the spectacular Orchid Range.\n\n\nMeet at the Farm Barn Orientation Center and take in the subtle changes that nightfall brings to Duke Farms during an evening walk to the Orchid Range. There\, we will encounter a wide variety of orchids\, many of which are most fragrant at night\, and observe the incredible diversity to be found in their structure and ecology. Are their specialized growing conditions and complex pollinator/fungal relationships the reason for the orchids’ reputation as fragile and fickle plants\, or is this simply what happens when a species is displaced from its native habitat? \nThis program is appropriate for adults. Please dress for the weather. Participants should be prepared to walk over 2 miles on paved trails. \nMeet in front of the Farm Barn Orientation Center for check-in. We recommend arriving 10-15 minutes before the start of class. We cannot accommodate late arrivals and the class will depart on time. \n\n\nProgram Guidelines\nPre-registration is required\, walk-ins are not accepted. Please let us know if you are no longer able to attend so your space can be offered to someone else. Cancellations received at least 48 hours in advance are eligible for a refund\, if applicable.
