Join Cal Poly professor 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 otherworldly 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. With his striking photography, humor, and botanical insight, Dr. Ritter will share the natural history of California’s largest and most storied organisms. A book signing of his latest publication, California's Native Trees, will follow the presentation, giving the in-person audience an opportunity to purchase this book.
