THE CENTRE FOR FOREST BIOLOGY HAS COMPILED A SELF-GUIDED WALKING TOUR of campus. The route passes 40 different species and can take an hour or two to complete. Near the Cornett Building, in the Quadrangle, are two “Finnerty Apple” trees, remnants of the farm and orchard that the pioneering Finnerty family started in the 1870s. The map is available online at web.uvic.ca/forbiol/news/Treewalk.pdf.
