Trees in Winter: A Second Set of Friends.
Channel: Farmscape Ecology Program
Date: 2021-01-08

This video presents the second, yellow-flagged installment of trees our free 'do-it-yourself' winter woody plant ID course. Flagged study trees are present at Crellin Park in Chatham NY but the tips are, I hope, useful elsewhere too. See below for index of species included in this video.


Please visit the course website, https://hvfarmscape.org/WinterWoodies, for more information and additional ID materials. Questions or comments, please contact conrad@hawthornevalleyfarm.org.


Thanks to Jerry Jenkins and the Northern Forest Atlas project for many of the bud shots. They have beautiful materials, for example, see the following amazing bud chart:
