By January, winter is well and truly here, but that doesn't mean we can't go looking at trees! Come join UW Alum Theodore Hoss for a chance to learn about the many trees on campus who persist in staying green even in spite of the gloomy gray, and take a chance to spend some time in the outdoors. We can't promise it will be sunny, but we can promise you'll learn lots about our most hardy campus trees. All campus tree tours take place outdoors, so please dress for the weather. To register, please visit https://bit.ly/tree_tour_registration. For more information, please visit the UW Campus Tree Tours Website.
