Join botanist and naturalist, Jazmen Yoder in a classic PNW moss-laden forest to learn cool moss facts, and the names of several common mosses, plus so much more. In this course you will learn about the evolutionary history of mosses, what makes them special and different from all other photosynthesizing organisms, their ethnobotanical uses, vocabulary to describe different structures found on mosses, and the basics of how to identify different species.
The objective of this course is to introduce students to bryology (study of mosses) and provide an immersive setting that will be memorable for all who participate. Come to gain familiarity with mosses to augment all your future explorations in PNW Forests.
Details and driving directions will be sent to registered participants 3-5 days prior to the event. Space is limited. Please register via the event website.
