SUMMARY:Walk at Tanglewood with Phyllis Smith: The Use of Trees by Native Americans
DESCRIPTION:Phyllis worked for Forsyth Parks and Recreation for 15 years as the Nature Education Director for Tanglewood Park. She is currently the Natural Resources Agent for N.C. Cooperative Extension, Forsyth County Center. She is happy to share her program, Integrated Pest Management for Invasive Plants, whenever possible. Contact Phyllis for details at pbsmith4@ncsu.edu or 336.703.2858.\nSeveral “Woodland” Native American groups inhabited the Yadkin River Valley prior to European Settlement with an abundance of natural resources at their disposal. Explore the ways that these groups used native trees and tree resources as we enjoy a leisurely walk through the Nature Trail of Tanglewood Park. We will start at the entrance gate of the Tanglewood Arboretum, which participants are welcome to explore on their own after the tree walk. The Nature Trail is unpaved and sightly hilly but not strenuous. Please wear comfortable walking shoes. Participants should stop at the park gate and inform the gate attendant that you are attending an Extension program at the Arboretum and the gate fee should be waived. Please take a left after passing the Manor House, park in the Manor House parking lot, and walk down to the main entrance gate of the Arboretum.\nFeatured photo: Phyllis Smith, Natural Resources Agent for N.C.
