Ionia, IA.
Do you enjoy a good walk in the woods? Do you like to identify trees when you are
outdoors? Do you wish you could identify trees with confidence in the winter? If this sounds like
you, then please join on Saturday February 3rd at 1:00pm at the Twin Ponds Nature Center in
Chickasaw County for our Winter Forestry Field Day. We will focus on methods to identify
native, and non-native trees and shrubs. The 1-2-hour field day will consist of a pleasant (and
possibly chilly) walk through the woods surrounding the nature center. We will use some tried
and true methods of identifying trees in the winter, such as: branch structure, bark, buds, leaf
scars, and others. This will be a fun and informal walk, and the floor will always be open to any
questions relating to forestry.
Hope to see many of you out here, and look forward to meeting more of our local
enthusiasts, professionals, and casual nature enjoyers. If you have questions, please reach out to
at the following points of contact.
