IN-PERSON PROGRAM 

From the forest floor to the tallest tree, mosses of impressive diversity cover local forest ecosystems. Take a relaxed and introductory look at these brilliant bryophytes with moss specialist Dr. Terry McIntosh – someone who loves sharing his expertise with those keen to learn more about marvelous moss. Come on out and join us in the Park, borrow one of our hand lenses, and get up close and personal with this ancient plant group!
