The Jepson Herbarium is the epicenter of research and education on the native and naturalized plants of California. Each year, the Herbarium provides educational opportunities for a broad audience of professional and amateur botanists. Our programs and resources serve as a liaison between the scientific community and the public. In 2026, we are hoping to have a botanical workshop at the UCR Boyd Deep Canyon Research Center. With Scott White as our instructor, we would explore local trails to look at (but not collect) plant life. We would also have presentations and plant identification sessions at the research center. There would be about 22 participants, 1 volunteer, 1 coordinator (me), and Scott (instructor).
