Tree leaf identification - upcoming workshop Connecticut

I have just seen notification of a workshop on tree leaf identification in Connecticut, this weekend, 22nd September at 10 a.m.

Jim Luce, supervisor of the grounds at Connecticut College, will be hosting the workshop at the College Arboretum and will focus on identifying trees by their leaves.


The workshop begins with a brief lecture, followed by a walk, in which participants will practice the techniques learnt.

The text for the course is available here

Trees of the Eastern and Central United States and Canada

a book by William M. Harlow.

Registration is $15 for Arboretum members and $18 for the general public. (Students who already have a copy of the text may deduct $9.)

For further information or to register, call 860-439-5060.
