Join Cal Poly professor Dr. Matt Ritter for a visually rich and inspiring celebration of the state's iconic native flora. From the towering redwoods of the northern coast to the other worldly Joshua trees of the desert, he will take you on a journey through the state's diverse landscapes, highlighting the remarkable variety of tree species that call California home. A book signing for California Trees: A Field Guide to the Native Species will follow the presentation, giving the in-person audience an opportunity to purchase this new title.
