The Story of the Trees

This is a NWS Wilderness Days Event

Join arborist Donna Danielson and learn how to identify several common trees of the park as well as learn their life cycles and shared history with humans. This will be about a ½-mile walk. 

Donna is retired from The Morton Arboretum where she did insect and disease research, worked in the Plant Clinic, and taught Botany for 16 years.  She also teaches entomology at the College of DuPage.

Meet at the Sugarbush Trail, Lot 4.

All programs are free, but a state park admission sticker is required on all vehicles.
Some programs are weather related, so check with the park if you have any questions.
