45. So, if Clubmosses aren’t Mosses, What are They?

Not mosses. Not baby conifers. They’re fern allies! In this class you’ll learn what that means and how to identify 5 or 6 species of this ancient family. We’ll begin in the cabin, learning important features of these spore producing plants then head out on a leisurely 2-mile hike to find and identify the different species. We’ll end the class with a spore explosion. Expect to spend time on your hands and knees. Hand lenses will be supplied or bring your own. Wear shoes appropriate for hiking. Suitable for ages 16 and up.
