Awbury Arboretum Visit
Today we visited the beautiful
Awbury Arboretum, which is luckily right across the street from our school, Wissahickon
Charter Awbury. The weather was great and the scenery was beautiful. We walked
around with our tour guide and nature expert Nancy Pasquier.
As we walked and viewed the amazing
Arboretum, we sketched inspirations and took some photos.
Nancy guided us and told us all
about the different kinds of plants and animals that are native to
Pennsylvania, and live in the area such as, Weeping Willows, Red Woods, Oak,
Cherry Blossoms, Locust, Cat tails, and invasive plants like Phragmites. It was
awesome learning about where we live and what animals and plants contribute to
our environment, as well as getting to draw out some ideas for our mural.
After going on our tour of the
Awbury Arboretum, we got a much closer look at nature and many cool ideas that
we would incorporate into our mural!
