Tour Overview

walking tour for dendrology

A tour of 20 of my favorite trees for dendrolgy. This tour features the trees around Lemieux's Orchard, my family's farm. A lot of the trees included were planted by my great grandfather or my grandfather. For this tour you will need tall boots with a good sole for hiking, a long sleeved shirt, long pants, and bug spray.
