SUMMARY:June Fern Foray with Peter Hope
DESCRIPTION:Group size: 15 maximum.\nTrip difficulty: The walking will be flat and easy and we’ll be going at a botanist’s pace\, so it won’t be aerobic. \nPeter Hope\, a popular foray leader known for his plant teaching skills\, will lead us around a site known for its spring wildflowers showing us the rich diversity of ferns lurking in the bedrock nooks and pavements. We’ll be admiring maidenhair spleenwort (Asplenium tri-chomanes ssp. quadrivalens)\, ebony spleenwort (A.platyneuron)\, rusty woodsia (Woodsia ilvensis)\, lowland fragile fern (Cystopteris tenuis)\, as well as the spike moss (Selaginella rupestris) and other interesting plants. \nSignup link:  https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScSHL70OnfOFah4QXhtQl1lqmL8fTr6X-SNIw6d-NIr72VmJA/viewform \nContact: Kate Kruesi\, kkruesi@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Dwarf Shrub Bog Foray with State Lands Ecologist
DESCRIPTION:Group size: 12\nTrip difficulty: Easy-a short flat 500 ft walk to the pond/bog with some roots\, rocks and soft spots along the way. \nHere are some details from Danielle: Most of the cool plants are visible either on or from the shore. We found a new population of Northern Yellow-eyed-grass (Xyris montana) here last year\, along with Olive Spikerush (Eleocharis flavescens var. olivacea)\, Arrowleaf (Peltandra virginica)\, and Dwarf Mistletoe (Arceuthobium pusillum). It’s possible we could find additional rare plants on our trip! I’ll invite folks to put on their nature detective hats and knit together a story about the history of the floating bog and pond–how it came to be and what the future might hold. \nEvent Organizer: Deb Parrella debscado@gmavt.net\nGoogle Form signup link: https://forms.gle/tDHTecMdp5cuiNLy5
