August 16 - Plant Pressing

led by John Anderson

Pressing plants is a common way to preserve plants for natural history and taxonomic studies. However, the same method can be used to make attractive arrangements, suitable for framing. In this workshop you will learn the techniques of pressing, drying and mounting plants both for you own nature studies and as art. You may bring your own plants to press or mount. Materials will be provided.

JOHN ANDERSON is the Executive Director of Aton Forest and has worked with plants in the region for over 20 years.  He has a vast knowledge of the species within the preserve as well as a strong connection with the land and history of Aton Forest.
