Back / Continuing Education / Prairie & Landscape Tours

Flowers & Trees of the North Campus Core


Join us for free guided tours of the UW-Whitewater Prairie & Nature Preserve, and through historic arboretums and gardens on the Whitewater campus this year! UW-Whitewater Continuing Education is pleased to partner with the UW-Whitewater Sustainability Office to offer these tours throughout the growing season. Wes Enterline, UW-Whitewater’s sustainability coordinator, will lead the tours.

Explore the many gardens and natural spaces tucked between our campus buildings. We’ll provide identification of and information about the annuals, perennials, shrubs and trees in our landscape beds around campus and visit the Campus Garden and Upham Greenhouse to learn more about campus sustainability projects. Participants will have an opportunity to ask garden-related questions.

This tour will explore the campus vegetable garden as well as trees and landscape beds near Moraine Hall, Hyland Hall, Upham Hall, Winther Hall, Minnieska Springs, and White Hall.

All tours are free with registration and open to the public. These are walking tours at a slow pace throughout the course of the time allotted, unless otherwise noted in the descriptions. All tours are held rain or shine, unless severe weather watches or warnings are issued the day of the event. Tour participant numbers are limited to make sure everyone has an interactive experience. Walk-up registrations are not accepted and anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
