Using our senses of touch, taste, smell, sight, and hearing, we can come to appreciate unique qualities of plants and trees that have made them partners in our survival. This 3/4-mile walk over moderate terrain with some inclines will highlight some species with distinct physical characteristics and hear their story. Using digital technology, we will empathize with their emotions.
