SUMMARY:Tree Walks & Talks: Urban Forest and Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:Ever notice trees while you’re out and about and wish you knew more about them? Join Elli Morris\, a tree lover with a Master of Forestry and extensive training in post-disturbance forest restoration\, for SJMA’s new Tree Walks & Talks interpretive series. These wanderings will focus on site-specific trees and our relationship with them. From fire adaptations to tree architecture to internal antifreeze\, appreciating trees can make any hike more enjoyable. Come be impressed not just with tree intelligence but the role trees play in our lives – and the roles we play in theirs. \nUrban Forest and Climate Change\nPerhaps you’ve heard the debate about planting native\, non-natives\, or naturalized species\, but what actually is “native”? How long is a plant in the area before it’s considered native? Is the past even the right place to look for answers in a changing future? Afterall\, even the Rocky Mountains have come and gone and come back! Join us for a walk on the Fort Lewis College campus to explore benefits of an urban forest on bird and animal species\, including us! \nWhen: August 12 \, 2026 | 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM \nWhere: Meet under the Fort Lewis College Clock Tower \nWhat to Bring: \n\nPlenty of water\, snacks or lunch\nHat\, sunscreen\, weather-appropriate layers\nWalking shoes\n\nCost: Free! A $10 donation is appreciated to support our public programs. \nRegistration Required: Space is limited to 10 attendees. Registration closes on August 11th at 4pm. \n[vc_btn title=”REGISTER TODAY” color=”green” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fsjma.app.neoncrm.com%2Fnp%2Fclients%2Fsjma%2FeventRegistration.jsp%3Fevent%3D5533%26||target:%20_blank|”]\nElli Morris received her Master of Forestry from NAU in 2022\, receiving extensive training in post-disturbance forest restoration. She’s a member of the La Plata County Tree Study Group. Elli’s biggest intrigue with trees is learning (and sharing) the multitude of skills trees employ for thriving in their habitat. She cannot recall how many trees she’s climbed but for sure she has a photo of at least one tree from the 60 countries and territories she’s visited.
