How knowledgeable are you when it comes to identifying range plants in the Rolling Plains? Plants not only provide us with oxygen, they provide many benefits to wildlife including food and different forms of cover, such as nesting, escape, and/or thermal cover.
Join plant experts Dr. Dale Rollins, Ricky Linex, Kent Mills and Chip Ruthven for a morning in the field identifying plants and learning their value to wildlife and livestock. They hope to expand your range plant knowledge and find value in all the plants, so that everyone can better appreciate them.
The Plant Appreciation Day will be held at the Rolling Plains Quail Research Ranch located 11 miles west of Roby, TX or 21 miles east of Snyder, TX on US Hwy. 180 . The group will meet at the headquarters on the south side of the highway, May 19. Registration is at 9 a.m., with tour starting at 9:30 a.m., lunch at 12 noon and program ending at 2 p.m.
