Date:

7:00 PM - 8:00 PM CDT
Event Description:
Free and Open to the Public!
Location: Madeline Island Museum
Like amphibians, mosses are tied to water in ways that conifers and flowering plants are not.
Understanding their relationship to water and light is essential as we talk about various moss habitats (forests, fens, backyards) and substrates (forest floor, tree bark, rock).
We will look closely at some Madeline Island species and discover that although small, they are not all the same.
Speaker: Joseph Rohrer, Emeritus Professor of Plant Biology at University of Wisconsin—Eau Claire.
