SUMMARY:Summer Tree ID Workshop
DESCRIPTION:*This class will be a combination of indoors and outdoors and does not require any prior tree identification knowledge.* \nLearn how to identify Minnesota trees! Tree shape\, coloring\, bark patterns\, habitat\, leaves\, and twigs all help conclude what kind of tree we are looking at. Mastering your tree identification skill is useful for many reasons\, but our favorite reason is to improve your ability to find mushrooms.  We will learn to identify native trees found in the twin cities metropolitan area\, and focus on those that have prime edible mushrooms associated with them. \nWe will begin by meeting indoors for about an hour to discuss tree types and features that will help differentiate one from another.  The presentation will include the basics of tree features and identification of the elm\, oak\, cottonwood\, ash\, and box elder and the mushrooms that are associated with those trees. However\, we will identify many other trees along our walk. After the discussion\, we will take a slow walk through the woods\, staying on trail\, and stopping to discuss trees along the way. The walk will be about 1 mile long and last 1 – 1.5 hours. \nTree Identification scroll will be included with ticket. \n \nFood and drink will be available for purchase from Mill Valley Market (located inside the Trailhead building) during the presentation. \nEvent will be held rain or shine\, but will be postponed for severe weather. Credit will be given for a future event if cancellation is needed.

SUMMARY:Winter Tree ID Workshop
DESCRIPTION:SOLD OUT – CHECK OUT OUR SUMMER TREE ID CLASS ON JUNE 10! More info at chickofthewoods.com/events. \n*This class will be a combination of indoors and outdoors and does not require any prior tree identification knowledge.* \nLearn how to identify trees in winter! And from a distance! Tree shape\, coloring\, bark patterns\, habitat\, and twigs all help conclude what kind of tree we are looking at. Mastering your tree identification skill is useful for many reasons\, but our favorite reason is to improve your ability to find mushrooms.  We will learn to identify native trees found in the twin cities metropolitan area\, and focus on those that have prime edible mushrooms associated with them. \nWe will begin by meeting indoors for about an hour to discuss tree types and features that will help differentiate one from another.  The presentation will include the basics of tree features and identification of the elm\, oak\, cottonwood\, ash\, and box elder and the mushrooms that are associated with those trees. However\, we will identify many other trees along our walk. We will spend extra time on the elm tree\, which is important for finding morel mushrooms.  After the discussion\, we will take a slow walk through the woods\, staying on trail\, and stopping to discuss trees along the way. The walk will be about 1 mile long and last 1 – 1.5 hours. \nFood and drink will be available for purchase from Mill Valley Market (located inside the Trailhead building) during the presentation. \nYou will receive a free tree identification scroll that will be helpful for identification while out in the woods. Bring a sharpie to make notes on your scroll. \nEvent will be held rain\, snow or shine\, but will be postponed for severe weather\, which includes temperatures less than 10 degrees Fahrenheit\, extreme wind\, or unsafe driving conditions. No refunds\, but credit will be given for a future event if cancellation is needed.

SUMMARY:Tree ID - Walk and Talk
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to identify trees without their leaves! Tree bark\, shape\, color\, and twigs all help conclude what kind of tree we are looking at. Mastering your tree identification skill is useful for many reasons\, but our favorite reason is to improve your ability to find mushrooms.  And when you don’t need to look up at the leaves to identify a tree\, it makes your mushroom mission much easier. \nWe will focus on identifying native trees found in this area and when applicable\, discuss which choice edible mushrooms are associated with that tree. Trees we will learn about on this walk include elm\, oak\, aspen\, hackberry\, ironwood\, ash\, box elder\, cottonwood\, and black cherry. What if you want to know what the leaves look like? We will be able to find leaves on the ground that match the tree. \nThis will be a slow walk through the woods at a local park\, staying on trail\, and stopping to discuss trees along the way. The walk will be about 1 mile long and last about 1.5 hours. \nEvent will be held rain\, snow or shine\, but will be cancelled for severe weather (credit will be given for a future event).  Exact location will be emailed to attendees at least 24 hours before the event.
