Join us as we learn and practice methods of identifying the native plants of our region (aka keying). For our November 22 meeting the topic will be Native Oaks of the Bay Area. There are seven common oaks in our San Francisco Bay Area. We’ll examine extensive plant samples and material as well as graphics, so everyone will learn how to key these iconic features of California.

We use the current edition of The Jepson Manual. Bring your own copy and a hand lens, plus plant samples if you have them. Microscopes are also available. We meet at the Peninsula Conservation Center (PCC), 3921 E. Bayshore Road in Palo Alto.

Directions to the PCC: From Hwy. 101 take the San Antonio Rd. exit and head north. Take the next left onto East Bayshore, which will curve left then right. Take the next right onto Corporation Way. The entrance to the PCC parking lot is the first driveway on the left.
