Join us as we learn and practice methods of identifying the native plants of our region (aka keying). We use the current edition of The Jepson Manual as well as other plant guides, and we have copies to share. Bring your own favorite guide, a hand lens and samples of plants that you want to ID. Microscopes will also be available.
The upcoming meeting dates are Fridays, February 28, March 27 and April 24, from 6:30 - 8:30pm.
We meet at the Peninsula Conservation Center (PCC), 3921 E. Bayshore Road in Palo Alto. For more information please contact Joe Cernac at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or (408) 292-5465.
