Wetland Plant Identification Workshops

Since 2012, CNHP has conducted wetland plant identification workshops throughout Colorado. The 3-day workshop entails a half day botany primer, a half day focusing on dominant plant families, and then 1 ½ days in the field with wetland ecologists to key out plants. Nomenclature corresponds with the Field Guides and Pocket Guides produced by CNHP.

“The handouts and pocket guide were fabulous, instructors were awesome.”

“The classroom portion was really well done, more time in the field.”

“Great class—I learned so much!”

“Handouts were extremely useful!”
