Botany

Botany

We will usually meet on Fridays at 9:30 AM from the beginning of May until the third week of July, with a possible mushroom/fungus outing in the fall.

The following table lists locations we typically visit. Click on a location to see some of the wildflowers we see at that specific location. Dates and details of outings are provided on the calendar on the homepage (scroll to the bottom). Bring water, lunch and appropriate clothing/footwear for the day (we are usually done by 1 PM). Meeting time and place will be confirmed the week before each outing by email.

Email botany@okanagannature.org for further details.
