Description

This workshop will focus on the identification and ecology of grasses that occur in New York with a focus on early season species. We will spend a lot of time in the field and have lab time as well, where access to dissecting microscopes will make examination of the small floral structures easier. This workshop is for all levels. There will be a review of basic grass parts and time for self or group study of specimens that will be supplied and/or that students bring

Easy to Moderate, some field trips will include walking up to about 1 mile and going down or up slopes.

Cornell Univeristy Covid policy will apply whenever in the lab or herbarium.

 Space is limited, registration and payment required.
