Learning our region's trees doesn't have to be intimidating—but not with the help of expert Audubon staff. Join Sharon Audubon Center for an informative program that will hone your tree knowledge. Equipped with an understanding of a few straightforward characteristics, you will walk away from this session with a foundation for being able to identify the trees in their backyards. Additionally, you will gain an introduction to a few regional pests that affect our trees, management techniques, and even impactful forest ecology efforts that focuses on conserving declining bird species.

Audubon For All—Audubon welcomes everyone who finds delight in birds and nature. Just as biodiversity strengthens natural systems, the diversity of human experience strengthens our conservation efforts for the benefit of nature and all human beings. We support a diverse and inclusive environment, and welcome individuals of all races, physical and mental abilities, sexual orientations, gender identities, ethnicities, and perspectives. Together, we will bring new creativity, effectiveness, and leadership to conservation and nature experiences. Welcome to our family!
