A Home in the Trees (DRAKE HALL)
OSHR 8067A tree, viewed with fresh eyes and a sharper perspective, assumes the identity of a home as if it were a hotel where animals, fungi, and even other plants can check in to live their lives. Some wildlife comes and goes; some wildlife comes and stays; always, they share in common that the tree is vital to their individual lives and well-being. Through the tree, they interconnect as a community. This class will develop those fresh eyes and that sharper perspective of the trees in our lives. When the stories are told, a walk in the woods will never be the same!
