Early May, before the trees cast a deep shadow under their canopies, understory plants are able to soak in the sun’s rays and show off their flowers. Dutchman’s breeches, spring beauties, trout lilies, and trilliums are just a few of the flowers that carpet the Catskill forest floor in the early spring. Take a walk with CFA and Forest Historian Dr. Michael Kudish to learn more about these spring ephemerals. We would like to thank Dr. Michael Kudish for helping make this event happen. Members: Free | Non-members: $10 This event is limited to 17 participants. If spots are full, you will automatically be added to the waitlist. Michael Kudish is an author, railroad historian, forester, and retired professor. He received his Ph.D. in 1971 from the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry at Syracuse. His dissertation, on the history of Catskill forests, was the beginning of a lifelong study. It was later expanded and published as The Catskill Forest: A History. As a professor emeritus in the Division of Forestry at Paul Smith’s College, he has also written four books on the vegetation of the Adirondacks. This includes Adirondack Upland Flora and a number of articles on forest history of both the Catskills and Adirondacks. His previous degrees included a B.S. from the City College of New York, and an M.S. from Cornell University.
