Conservation and Plant Pressing Workshop

Emma Byerly, Gardens Conservation Intern

Discover how our conservation team uses herbarium vouchers to further our mission to understand and preserve alpine plants. Join us at Betty Ford Alpine Gardens as we discuss the unique conservation uses of herbarium specimens.

Far from simply being dried plants, herbarium collections can document plant diversity, track plant responses to climate change, describe endangered moths, and bring species back from extinction.

Meet at the Education Center in Ford Park
