Do you marvel at the beauty of trees on Shenandoah Mountain?  Do you want to learn more about how to identify different species of trees?

Adam Downing, Virginia Extension Agent for Forestry, will lead us through the forest around Hone Quarry and will teach us how to identify tree species typically found in our Central and Southern Appalachian forests. These forests have the greatest plant and tree diversity of any forests in the United States.  They are home to numerous species of salamanders, birds, and mammals.
