#35. Plants of Bogs & Barrens (FT-2) 1:00 pm – 4:30 pm Understanding that geology drives ecology helps us understand the plants that grow in bogs and barrens, sometimes side-by-side and yet in very different habitats. Join Conservation Specialist Quita Sheehan in exploring the geology and ecology of the pitted outwash-dominated Moquah Pine Barrens. We’ll look at the formation of the kettles and potholes in the area and identify some of the hard-working plants that make a living in such difficult environments. Knee-high water-proof boots are recommended but not required.
