Description: |
What Is The Tree? What Is That Shrub? at the South Fork Natural History Museum and Nature Center in Bridgehampton, Long Island, New York. Jackson Dodds, Friends of the Long Pond Greenbelt (FLGB) Board Member. Co-sponsored: Friends of the Long Pond Greenbelt (FLPG) and South Fork Natural History Museum (SoFo).
Join arborist Jackson Dodds on the William B. Sickles Tree ID Trail, to learn how to identify many of the trees and shrubs found in the Long Pond Greenbelt. This particular trail is noteworthy because it is home to at least twenty species of native Greenbelt trees and shrubs — including bayberry, high and low bush blueberry, hickory, and three types of oak. You’ll also learn the answers to some interesting questions such as which leaves, when crushed, were used as “poor man's soap”, and which made the best stuffing for mattresses. Meet at the Southampton Town Long Pond Greenbelt Nature Center, 1061 Bridgehampton/Sag Harbor Turnpike in Bridgehampton. |
