What are those funny shaped growths on leaves, roots, twigs, plants, and flowers? Galls. Be they round, elliptical, bumpy, or bulging, most are caused by insect activity. Head afield with a Friends Naturalist in search of galls and learn of the one-to-one relationship each has with a local insect.

Winter is a wonderful time to explore the lives of insects, mammals, trees, and weed plants. With Donald W. Stokes’ A Guide to Nature In Winter as our escort, let’s head outdoors to discover life under, in and above the snow. Each week participants will prepare for our walk by reading a general information section, usually 2 to 3 pages. We will hunt for examples of our reading and delve into their unique characteristics, history, and identification.
Snowshoes will be provided if needed. Once registration is confirmed, a copy of the book will be waiting for you at the Visitor Center.
