Tree ID Hike | Jersey County 4-H
Registration for this event is closed. Please call Jersey County Extension at 618-498-2913 with questions.
The history of Pere Marquette State Park centers around the Illinois Rivier. The surrounding region is an ideal environment for prairie grasses, plants, and deciduous forest, dominated by oak and hickory trees. Join Andrew Holsinger, Extension horticulture educator, for a morning at the park. Tour the park and learn about tree identification and native trees of Illinois.
Monday, June 10 from 10 a.m. to noon at Pere Marquette State Park Visitors Center located at 13112 Visitors Center Ln, Grafton, IL 62037. We will meet outside the Visitor Center.
