We are a group of Riderwood Residents who like Trees! We want to be able to identify and label trees on our campus.

Upcoming Events/Past Events
October 14, 2022. Trees dedicated to Riderwood Staff in appreciation for their service during the Covid pandemic: Fringe Trees near the Chapel 4-way stop and a White Oak Tree near Arbor Ridge by the 3-way intersection.
Sylvan Sleuths are concerned about upcoming renovations in Village Square Courtyard that has trees of significant size within the Conservation Easement area.

The Trees of Riderwood.
We are slowly working our way through identifying the trees on our campus. In May 2023 we completed two years of work on the trees in the Montgomery Station Arboretum. The work is documented in the Montgomery Station Arboretum Tree Notebook. The information is presented below in a gallery of trees. Identifying and documenting the trees in the Town Center Courtyard is the next project for the Sylvan Sleuths.
