Centennial Woods is an integral piece of Burlington located right on the UVM campus. From the UVM Davis Center head down Catamount Drive and on the left is a path with a UVM sign, “Centennial Woods.” I chose Centennial Woods because of its proximity to campus, the variety of species, and the variety of ecosystems/other features i.e. the stream.
Common species found in Centennial are Eastern hemlocks, American beech, White pine, Paper birch, and a variety of evergreens. On my site there was a fair amount of plants in the understory, primarily ferns and other herbaceous plants. While I was there I drew a picture of my site which is seeing the signs of fall.
