Tree ID for Seed Savers at Zilker Botanical Garden

Tree ID For Seed Savers at the Zilker Botanical Garden

This is not a volunteer opportunity; it is an educational event.

Have you been wondering what kind of tree is growing in your yard? Maybe you want to learn a fun new skill? Well, you’re in luck, because the Central Texas Seed Savers and TreeFolks are partnering with the Zilker Botanical Garden to lead a Tree ID lesson in their beautiful space!

You will learn how to identify native trees and how to safely and ethically collect seeds to donate to the TreeFolks Seeds To Trees Native Nursery.

Thank you to the Zilker Botanical Garden for hosting this event!

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.
