Are you interested in touring the University & Jepson Herbaria? Please sign up for one of the below public tours! If none of these tour times meet your needs, please reach out to Nina House (ninahouse@berkeley.edu), Klara Scharnagl (lichen_curator@berkeley.edu), and/or Saskia Raether (sraether@berkeley.edu) to see if we can accommodate a different date and time for you.
Tours will cover a large breadth of topics, including how we started, how herbarium specimens are collected and how they end up here, our curation practices, ongoing projects, and so much more! Beautiful specimens will be on display and curators from the different collections will be available for questions!
Tours will be about one hour long. Please meet at the front of the Herbaria, located at:
1001 Valley Life Sciences Building
Berkeley, CA 94720
We look forward to seeing you in the collection!
