Registration for this course is closed. Join Master Naturalist Liz Landreth for a series of three Saturday wildflower walks in the Rogue Valley that highlight the diversity and beauty of the place we call home. You will employ all your senses as you learn how to identify plants and hear lively stories on botany, ethnobotany, and the natural world while you gain an appreciation of our unique ecoregion. We will take our time to stop, observe, touch, and smell. Basic botany and ecology topics will be covered. No previous botanical knowledge is required, but plant geeks are welcome! Plant lists will be provided for each location, which will focus on different habitats. Each outing will last about 4.5 hours, including transportation time and meeting at the OLLI Campbell Center at 9:30 a.m. to arrange carpooling. Directions and maps will be provided. Bring lunch, water, a hat, and hiking shoes (poles are optional). No dogs are allowed. A liability waiver must be signed prior to the first hike. NOTE: Participants must be in good physical shape, able to navigate wet, rocky trails with up to 780 feet elevation gain and up to five miles round trip.
