SUMMARY:Colorado Native Plant Master: North Cheyenne Canyon Park
DESCRIPTION:A three week series of classes on native plant identification in the field. We will identify 40-60 plants throughout the course.\n\n\nSchedule: June 4\,11 and 18 from 8:00AM-12:00PM. Participants must attend all three classes for course completion. \nPark Description: North Cheyenne Cañon Park is a city-owned park with over 1\,600 acres. The park has two visitor’s centers and has many many miles of trails. Helen Hunt Falls sits near the top of the park and water from Cheyenne creek flows through the canyon. Imposing walls form either side of the canyon where sandstone and shale is marked by granite outcrops and peaks. Diverse and abundant plant life thrives in these varying ecosystems. \nPLEASE NOTE: This is a field class. There are no bathrooms after we leave the visitor center. The terrain that we will cover in this course is steep with areas of loose gravel. We will cover 2-6 miles each day during the 4 hour class period. If you are concerned about the mileage\, terrain\, or footing\, please consider signing up for our Garden of the Gods class later in the season. \nWe will introduce you to 40-60 plants\, using family features and a botanical key to help identify species. Ecological relationships\, human connections and the potential to use some of these plants in your landscaping will be discussed. In addition\, we will emphasize understanding noxious alien plants and the challenge they present to our native environment. \nTrainers: \nJan Berry completed her Colorado Master Gardener training in 2020 and her Native Plant Master training in 2022. She hikes and camps all over Colorado\, in awe of the variety of ecosystems (and flora) we have in our state. She is working on incorporating more native plants into her landscape in downtown Colorado Springs. \nBarb has a B.S. in Biology (1978 from San Diego State University). She became a Colorado Master Gardener in 2021 and a Native Plant Master in 2022. She loves to identify native plants and is currently attempting to create a native plant area in her backyard (in a space of 10’ x 40’) using seeds and plants. \nPrerequisite: A basic botany class is suggested for those who would like to refresh their botanical knowledge and is highly recommended for those who have minimal background. \nBasic Botany-April 4\, from 4:00-7:00pm \nRegister in advance for this webinar: \nhttps://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJIkceGvqzgrGNOVvQVtx1oJ1tsnHRIa3YO1 \nPlant Families-April 11\, from 4:00-7:00pm \nRegister in advance for this webinar: \nhttps://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJEtcumgqjgjGtdTJfpz1P8dfZWSTiJJWiOj \nNative Plant Master: Participants who pass three NPM courses will receive a Native Plant Master Certificate.
