SUMMARY:Winter Wellness Walk
DESCRIPTION:Take a brisk walk this winter and stay healthy and connected to the Arboretum at a time when the landscape is pared down to its beautiful bones. Join docent Carol Kuo for a 90-minute walk that is similar to a guided tour\, but with a slightly faster pace and fewer stops\, to keep your feet warm and your blood pumping! Please dress appropriately for the weather including sturdy footwear. Each walk will cover a different part of the Arboretum\, depending on weather and seasonal features.

SUMMARY:The Architecture of Trees
DESCRIPTION:This is a members-only program. Not a member? Click here to join. \n\n\n\nIn winter\, when all the leaves have fallen\, the stark and beautiful forms of the bare trees suddenly come into focus. It becomes clear that not all tree forms are alike: some trees are cone-shaped\, some round\, some have steep branch angles\, others have branches that stick straight out from the trunk. Join Director of Horticulture and Landscape Rodney Eason for a walk to explore tree architecture at the Arboretum and learn how to use tree form to help identify trees in the winter\, and how the different forms help or harm the trees throughout their lives. \n\n\n\nAccessibility: This program may involve walking over mulch and gravel paths\, grass\, and off-path terrain. Participants will need to navigate Valley Road\, which is a moderate hill. \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. \n\n\n\nMake sure to select a number of tickets before clicking “Get Tickets” below!

SUMMARY:Mushroom Hunt
DESCRIPTION:Hundreds of mushrooms hide beneath the Arboretum’s canopies\, silently blossoming into unique forms then withering away again just as quickly.

SUMMARY:'Asunder' and the California Wildfires
DESCRIPTION:The devastating wildfires in California over the past several years have left the landscape starkly and in many cases permanently changed. Billie Mandle\, Photography professor at Massachusetts College of Art and Design\, and Karen Haas\, Curator of Photography at the MFA\, come together to talk about Billie’s new photography book ‘Asunder\,’ made up of stark and haunting photos of the aftermath of the 2020 Glass Fire in Northern California. They will be joined by Director of the Harvard Forest Jonathan Thompson who will share his research on how the wildfires have changed the very makeup of California forests\, from mature trees to landscapes dominated by chaparral. \n\n\n\nJoin us for this unique panel talk that mixes science and art to look at some of the most devastating natural disasters of the past decade. \n\n\n\nAccessibility: The Hunnewell Lecture Hall is wheelchair accessible. \n\n\n\nAudience: This program is geared towards adults. \n\n\n\nMake sure to select a number of tickets before clicking “Get Tickets” below!
