Excursion in
Brandehei
Purpose:
The purpose with this excursion
was to find out more about what kind of edible berries they have in
Vennesla.
Equipment:
Clothes for the occasion
Digital camera
Norwegian flower book
HIGH SPIRITS
Description and observations:
Due to the fact that this
excursion took place 6th of June 2001, the weather was
gray and sad. The air and the ground was pretty wet, so we had
clothes that were suited for the weather conditions.
The excursion took place in an
area in Brandehei neighborhood, which lies pretty close to our school.
The place was pretty open if
you look at the amount of trees, but it drizzled of life here. The
place was vigorous. In this area there were a lot of blueberry plants.
Afterwards we took with us
some examples of different kind of plants. We used a digital camera
to take pictures of many of the plants.
In this area we found:
Raspberry plants, blueberry plants, Bird cherries, whortleberries, rowan,
crowberries, whortleberries and junipers.
Conclusion:
Because of the time of the
year (6th June) none of the plants/trees have berries on
them. Some of the plants have formed unripe fruit/berry.
We found blueberry,
mountain cranberry, crowberry, juniper berry and whortleberry
plants in the upper/higher ground while bird cherry and raspberry
plant in the lower grounds.
Rowanberry
where found in both areas/grounds.
The berries dont come
until July- August.
