The Chattanooga Audubon Society will be hosting a

Basic Tree Identification workshop at the Audubon

Acres Sanctuary on Saturday, October 16th. The program

will be presented by local naturalist, Ray Zimmerman

and will begin at 9:00 AM last until 12:00 PM. This

educational opportunity will cost $8.00 per individual

and is open to the public.

The program is designed to teach individuals how to

identify trees using dichotomous keys, assisted with

the use of field guides. The program will consist of

both an indoor lecture and a tree walk within the

beautiful Audubon Acre's Elise Chapin Sanctuary

grounds. Individuals will also learn basic taxonomic terminology,
silverculture, and be able to recognize five or more common trees or
tree groups by sight at the conclusion of the course.
