Requirement 3

Complete Companion requirements



Requirement 4

Trees, Shrubs & Cacti
Collect and identify the leaves of 15 different trees and seven shrubs.
OR
Photograph and observe at least five different types of cacti.


Trees and Shrubs

Unless you live in a place that it warm year-round, this requirement will be very difficult to mange from late fall through early spring. Since the Pathfinder year usually begins in September, you should get on this one right away. Otherwise you will have to wait for spring.

If you are not familiar with identifying trees and shrubs, you will need to either recruit someone who is, or get a good field guide. Be sure the the field guide covers the area where you will be collecting.

You should also take a look at the Trees honor and the Shrubs honor.

Cacti

If you live in an area where cacti are abundant, this requirement can best be met outdoors.

If not, you can bring potted cacti to a Pathfinder meeting. If you do not own five, ask members of your church. Someone may be willing to loan you some and even come to the meeting to talk about them.

For more information, see the Cacti honor.

Requirement 5

Complete a nature honor not previously earned. (Skill level 1)


Good choices for the Companion class include
