Leaves are the amazing  power plants of the plant world. Beyond their photosynthetic functions, leaves are remarkably varied in their shapes, sizes, surfaces, and details, and both fascinating and beautiful to observe and study. Learn more about leaves, see how gaining familiarity with leaf characteristics can assist your understanding of plants, and get tips on identifying broadleaved and coniferous trees. Bring your lunch and your favorite tree field guide if you have one. We’ll be using Master Tree Finder by May Theilgaard Watts and will have copies to share if you don’t have your own.
