The grasses are our most diverse plant family in settled areas, and our second most diverse, after sedges, in forests, glades, and wetlands. They are interesting and rewarding: graceful, intricate, ecologically sensitive. If you don’t know them, you are missing a lot. If you are meeting them for the first time, you are in for a treat.

This is a two-weekend course. The first is at the end of the early grass season, the second at the beginning of the late. The second will build on the first. You can take either by itself, but the grass show really has two acts, and we recommend both.
