August 17, 2021 Dade Native Plant Workshop Field Trip 7PM

[Steve Woodmansee]

This month we will return to Ron Ehman Park located here.  Meeting time is later than usual, 7PM.  Park your car (or bicycle) on the northside of the preserve, accessed from SW 97th Avenue in the NW corner of the park, and we will walk south  and then west along the path to the little preserve area (predominately in the SE portion off the park).  We will see what has happened 7 months since the control burn which was conducted earlier in the year.  This park is contains a small pine rockland, and is fairly diverse given its size.  Grasses and early fall wildflowers should be in bloom.

Bring a loupe, pen, notebook, and a curious mind. If you want help identifying plants from home, feel free to bring up to three.

We should be returning to Miami-Dade College Kendall Campus Landscape Technology Center in September.
