CNPS field trips are open to everyone. We encourage you to come along and meet other like-minded people who enjoy getting a close look at the plants that surround us. Learn why native plants are so special and have a free soda at the end of the hike while we chat about what we saw. You can now order inexpensive hand lenses to use on chapter field trips. The hope is that they will be given out to allow newcomers, especially kids, to get more involved with understanding flowers and perhaps develop a greater interest in Nature.
Initial response is very encouraging.
In fact the first 250 were spoken for immediately. These lenses are basic plastic lenses, 3x with a smaller 5x insert. They are quite adequate for a beginner. If you would like to order lenses, plese contact me and let me get an order packaged and on its way. I will explain the few details in email confirmation.
