Discovering the Ancients

Discovering the Ancients is an exciting educational program that includes new curriculum and field tools developed by The SummerTree Institute to identify, measure, and estimate the ages of centuries-old native desert plants. Participants in this program gather field measurements from ancient native plants, including their location, size, height, and estimated age.

School students are studying and documenting the growth, and amazing ages, of our ancient desert plants in these regions:

  • ancients of joshua tree national park
    Ancients of Joshua Tree National Park
  • discovering ancients sand to snow
    Ancients of Sand to Snow National Monument
