Tree ID for Seed Savers at Agave Neighborhood Trail
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? Curious about all of the recent construction that’s been happening at Agave Neighborhood Park? Well, you’re in luck, because the Central Texas Seed Savers and TreeFolks are coming to Agave Neighborhood Park to lead a Tree ID lesson to help you learn a little more about what’s growing around you!
Come explore Agave’s newly completed 1 mile trail system! This trail project was envisioned by the Friends of Agave Park, and was funded by a grant from the Austin Parks Foundation! While exploring the trails, 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.
Meet your walk leader at the Agave Neighborhood Park, 5900 Sendero Hills Pkwy, Austin, TX 78724
