About Tree Identification
Tree identification is the practice of recognizing trees by their leaves, bark, shape, and other features—a skill that can deepen your appreciation for the natural world and help you understand the important role trees play in our local ecosystem. By learning to identify native trees, you’ll gain the tools to spot them in your own neighborhood, support their conservation, and share that knowledge with others.
