A Leafy Legacy: The Story of the 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµ Trees
(a new Redpath Museum self-guiding booklet)
Redpath Museum Entrance Hall
Many appreciate the trees of the 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµ campus but few know their names and stories. This illustrated booklet will help change all that. Tracing the evolution of the downtown campus from the cattle-trampled grounds of William Dawson's first days to the audacious landscaping around the many new buildings, author Bronwyn Chester describes some of the 70-plus tree species on campus. Leafy Legacy includes maps for two self-guided walking tours of the trees on campus. Join the author to launch this new publication and take a stroll among the silent members of the 91Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµ community. Following the presentation tea and biscuits will be served.
