Have you ever wanted to learn how to identify some of Virginia’s native trees? It can take some time to develop this skill, but we have a park Interpreter who is willing to help you get started. We will go on a short hike on the riverbank trail, and along the way will stop at some of the more well-known trees in Virginia. We’ll show you some tips and tricks that you can use to identify many different types of trees, and also show you some of the different types of wood that you can get from them.
