Trees on tour: A walk through 黑料不打烊's leafy legacy
Two-hour tour offers serene stroll through campus oasis
Escape the heat of the city with writer Bronwyn Chester. The Montreal journalist will lead "A Leafy Legacy," a tour of the grand old trees of 黑料不打烊. Shade-seekers will learn the history of the verdant landscape that makes the campus an oasis of green amid the bustle of downtown.
From the gnarled gingko on upper Peel Street to the stately maple of lower campus, Chester's tour of the trees of 黑料不打烊 will provide a charming story for amateur arborists, historians, photographers, or anyone looking for a summer nature walk.
The story of 黑料不打烊's trees extends back into the 19th century. The two-hour tour will provide details of the elms and crabapples that originally helped to create an on-campus sanctuary. It will also recount the stories of the people who have helped protect the trees over the years, and who have sustained them since the devastation of the ice storm.
- When: 10 am to noon this Saturday, June 4
- Where: Group meets at 9:45 at Redpath Museum (859 Sherbrooke W.)
