SUMMARY:Canceled: Sedges of the Kentucky River Palisades
DESCRIPTION:Many of the grass-like plants one may encounter in Kentucky’s natural areas are not actually grasses. Although similar\, they are members of an entirely different family of plants. This hike will focus on the largest genus within the sedge family (Cyperaceae)\, the genus Carex. With close to 150 species in this genus found in Kentucky\, the diversity of sedges (Carex) is astounding and they can tell us a lot about the natural communities upon which they are found.  Join OKNP botanists Devin Rodgers and Tara Littlefield on a hike to learn some of the most common sedges found in the Bluegrass. \nHiking Level: moderate to difficult due to steep terrain and uneven surfaces \nRefund Policy: Refunds are permitted for cancellations made at least two weeks in advance of the event. No refunds or transfers of fees will occur if the request is made less than two weeks prior to the event. To request a refund\, email info@floracliff.org. \nWeather Policy: For the safety and enjoyment of our visitors\, all programs are subject to cancellation due to inclement weather\, including rain\, wind\, and severe weather warnings and advisories.
