'Enjoy the Resources. Protect the Resources.' - The Trees of Penn’s Woods: America 250 Edition
How did early colonists in Pennsylvania use different trees they encountered? How did they identify one tree from another?
We're going to combine botany with history! During this short walk around the Day Use Area, we'll help you learn to recognize our common trees and connect them to the story of our country.
Meet at the Warming Hut - no registration required.
This event is part of the Enjoy the Resources. Protect the Resources. day of activities, presented by NEPA Sierra Club and Lackawanna State Park staff.
This event welcomes everyone to enjoy the park, link the natural resources to our country’s founding in recognition of America250, and connect you to conservation efforts in the park and beyond!
