GoBotany Interactive Field Guide Launched

Go Botany--a free website developed by former HF Bullard Fellow Elizabeth Farnsworth and the New England Wild Flower Society--is an interactive, online field guide to more than 3,000 native and naturalized plants in New England.

Funded by the National Science Foundation, the website is meant to be used by anyone from botanical beginners to trained professionals. On April 11, K-12 teachers from the HF Schoolyard Ecology Program will be trained on the new program for use in their classrooms.
