‘Unlocking Secrets from the Past from Tree Rings’ – Blau House and Gardens

Have you ever looked at the rings of a tree and wondered what stories they tell? Each ring holds clues about the tree’s age, past climates, wildfires, and storms. Special guest Caroline Leland, dendrochronologist from Columbia University’s Tree-Ring Laboratory, will show how scientists study tree rings—both in the field and in the lab—and explain why the great white oaks of Blau House & Gardens are among Westport’s most treasured cultural landmarks.
Enjoy exploring the gardens after the talk.
