Tree Walk with an Arborist in Drake Park

Learn to identify trees located along the Deschutes River.

Learn to identify the trees located along the Deschutes River and Mirror Pond. We will be discussing both how to identify the individual species that grow in our area, and some plant ID basics along the way.

Plan to walk about 1.5 miles on paths and lawn turf. We will be walking rain or shine, so please bring some sunscreen and water, and be prepared for the elements. We’ll start at the Downtown Bend Library and walk to Drake Park. We will be walking about the park, and then back to the Downtown Bend Library.
