Have you wondered what kind of tree is growing in your yard? Maybe you want to know the difference between a Lacy Oak and a Texas Live Oak?
Well, Central Texas Seed Savers are coming to Pease Park to lead a Tree ID class to help you learn a little more about what's growing around you! Folks of all ages can learn about key characteristics that differentiate one tree from another. This class will also have a seed collection component for dispersal and use throughout the community!
We’ll gather at the Picnic Tables before heading out on the walk.
The Central Texas Seed Savers is a growing network of people who love seeds with the mission of preventing the extinction of ecologically and culinarily important plants in the Central Texas Region.
TreeFolks was founded as Austin’s Urban Forestry non-profit in 1989. Since then, TreeFolks has grown to work with communities throughout Central Texas in community tree planting, tree giveaways, education and urban-wildland reforestation efforts. Our mission is to empower Central Texans to build stronger communities through planting and caring for trees.
Pease Park Conservancy celebrates the diverse ecology and history that make Austin’s first public park valuable and unique. The Conservancy works to restore, enhance and maintain this 84-acre public green space for the sustainable use and enjoyment of all through conservation and programming efforts.
Thank you to H-E-B for supporting all of our educational programming events!
A note about Pease Park Conservancy's events: If you sign up, please make every effort to show up. Our events are free so all of our community members can attend. But we plan our events to be meaningful for the number of people who register to be there, so please make every effort to attend if you have registered. We understand things come up from time to time, but If you have registered we look forward to having you there! Thank you!
