Course Title: WinterBotany 2023 (Winter Term 2023)
Participant Testimonials:

The class was fascinating. Lynnwood was very, very knowledgeable and presented the material well. She had examples to show from the library's collection and her own that made it much easier to understand and appreciate how bookbindings are made.

Alice and Lynnwood were both knowledgeable and well-prepared. Even more important, they were great role models in approaching the landscape and studying its species.

They listed plants, answered all questions, and soooo patient with slow walkers like me!

We hiked at various nature preserves and conservation land - all diverse and accompanied by a list of plants with familiar names and botanicals - vetted by Alice and Lynnwood in advance!
