SUMMARY:Beeches Up Close
DESCRIPTION:This is a members-only program. Not a member? Click here to join! \n\n\n\nThe stately beeches of the Arboretum used to tower over other trees–and some still do–but pests\, diseases\, and other pathogens have taken their toll in recent years. Join Arborist Delia Mahoney for a walk in the beech collection and learn about the challenges these trees have faced\, what the Arboretum is doing in response\, and what the collection looked like in years past. \n\n\n\nThis program meets at South Street Gate\, but please note that there is no parking at this gate: the closest parking is on Flora Way\, which is a 10-minute walk from South Street Gate. \n\n\n\nAccessibility: The beech collection is located on a relatively steep hill\, so participants should expect to do some moderate climbing. Terrain includes woodchip and gravel paths. \n\n\n\nAudience: This members-only program is geared towards adults. \n\n\n\nInclement weather policy: Participants will be notified via email at least one day in advance if a program needs to be cancelled due to inclement weather\, and will be notified by phone if a program must be cancelled with less one day’s notice. Click here to view our full inclement weather policy. If you have questions about the status of a program\, please email publicprograms@arnarb.harvard.edu (inbox monitored on weekdays) or call the Visitor Center desk between 10:00am and 4:00pm at (617) 384-5209.
