Friends of Hobbs Speaker Series: Ozark Chinquapin Roots

Meeting Place: Visitor Center
admission: Free

Join us for a free presentation on new information recently learned about the Ozark chinquapin tree, a species that once made up a significant portion of the Ozark forest, but then almost disappeared due to the chestnut blight. A six-person team excavated the root system of an Ozark chinquapin tree that died in our restoration plot and uncovered some surprising facts.
