Forest Walks
This Old Tree Consulting offers scheduled Forest Walks in the beautiful woodlands of Rhode Island and also the Outer Cape. They are guided hikes that focus on learning native tree and plant identification, understanding forest ecology, and exploring the unique landscapes all around us.
Walks are led by Doug Still, a Cape Cod native and now a resident of Providence, RI. He was formerly the Providence City Forester. Doug has an MS in Forest Resources from Penn State University and 27 years of experience creating tree canopy and teaching tree identification to various audiences. He is also an avid hiker, and has come to appreciate the unique ecology and beauty of New England forests.
Limit 15 people per walk. A $15 donation for adults is appreciated but not necessary. To check availability and make a reservation, email Doug here. To follow on Facebook, see @outermostforestwalks.
Looking for a group activity for your organization or circle of friends? Private guided walks are also offered, depending on availability. Email Doug here to discuss dates and group rates.
