About this Event
Leave any parcel of land in the Blue Ridge undisturbed for long enough and a forest will spontaneously generate. Naturalist and Forest Biologist Dan Lazar takes you through the stages of forest succession following a path of natural transition from field to forest at the Arboretum. Learn your way through pine, mixed hardwood and ericaceous forest types -- and that's just on one trail -- and picture the forest past, present and future.
Dan Lazar served for many years as the director of education at the Western North Carolina Nature Center, followed by several years as executive director of the Colburn Earth Science Museum. Dan has a degree in forest biology from the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry and has been an instructor in the Blue Ridge Naturalist program since 2005.
