Trip Description

NYFA visits Inwood Hill Park for an offering of its “Learn 10” program. Participants will learn how to use various keys, such as Newcomb’s Wildflower Guide and Wildflowers in the Field and Forest, to ‘Learn 10’ common wildflowers and shrubs of the region. We will take a hike around the Inwood Hill park to examine plant characteristics that will help you distinguish one species from another.

Prior botanical knowledge is not a pre-requisite for this trip! All levels welcome!

Feel free to bring any field guides you may have, but none are required. Comfortable walking shoes and water are highly recommended. We will be walking on gravel paths, with some elevation gain.

If you have any questions about the trip before registering, please email inwood@nyflora.org.

All NYFA field trips are free and open to all.
