INTRODUCING THE WILLOW
Date & Time: April 21 from 6:30-7:30 pm
Location: Hartley Nature Center
Event Description: Weep with joy for willows and learn about the nuanced features that help us determine which willow is which! Willows have rich history in medicine, have deep roots in cultures around the globe, serve as an important food source for invertebrates, and are so effective with river bank and soil erosion stabilization they can become problematic. Join ANPE to discover the willow family!

Event Leader: Reed Schwarting is a botanist with a decade worth of experience performing a variety of plant taxonomic work in Northern Wisconsin. From dry sandy pine barrens to the wet peaty bogs, he’s spent much of his career and free time trouncing through remote landscapes.
Event cost: Your $20 (per household) annual Arrowhead Native Plant Explorers membership includes access to all events and field trips ($10 for students). For nonmembers, your first meeting or event is free and subsequent events are $10 per event.
