Trees Without Leaves: A Winter Tree ID Walk
January 29, 2026, 4:30 PM - 5:30 PM
About:
Have you ever tried to identify a tree with no leaves? Want to take your tree ID skills to the next level—even in winter?
Join our arborists on January 29th at Independence Park, for a Winter Tree Identification Walk! During this guided walk, you’ll learn how to identify trees by examining buds, bark, branching patterns, and overall structure, which are key skills every tree enthusiast should know when the leaves are gone.
This is a hands-on, educational experience perfect anyone looking to deepen their connection to Charlotte’s urban forest. We’ll move at a relaxed pace, answer questions along the way, and yes, we’ll provide a warm beverage to keep you cozy as we explore
Come sharpen your winter tree ID skills, learn from our experts, and enjoy a seasonal walk with fellow tree lovers. We hope to see you there!
