About This Camp & Activity

If you like to watch our natural areas come alive in the spring and summer, consider joining our phenology program. Volunteers visit the site of their choice every other week to record which plants are blooming from May through September. This data will be used for an on-going research study with Field Station Ecologist Tom Simpson. A moderate knowledge of plant ID is necessary, but even more important is an enthusiasm for getting out in the field on a regular basis and willingness to learn. Multiple sites available throughout the county. The phenology program is in its eighth year, and more than 30 volunteers have been part of the fun!
