Interested in learning how to create herbarium specimens or just love pressing plants? Hannah Machiorlete ’20 & Sami Zimmerman ’19 from Lewis & Clark’s Natural History Club will be hosting a plant pressing workshop in the library classroom on two Fridays in the coming weeks!
The first session is Friday, November 17 from 4 - 5 p.m. and will cover collecting and pressing plant specimens. The second session will be two weeks later, Friday December 1, at the same time and will cover the mounting procedure. Both sessions will occur in the Watzek Classroom on the second floor (see here for a map). All materials will be provided. Though we will be collecting plants during the first workshop, feel free to bring other specimens to press if desired.
Thanks and hope to see you there,
Hannah & Sami
