ANNOUNCING TWO MORE WORKSHOPS in the same weekend:
FIELD IDENTIFICATION CLASS for BEGINNERS
Friday, AUGUST 19th 6-8:30pm
*Explore local ecology on field walks in the Peaks Mill area of
Franklin
County
*Be introduced to basic plant identification and classification of
wild
plants
*Discuss principles of traditional western medicine
*Create a pressed plant specimen to be preserved for reference
With interest we can offer this class in several seasons to cultivate
year
long ability to gather your own medicines in your backyard, as the
plants
and parts of plants used will vary with timing. The current drought-
like
midsummer climate will foster an experience closer to winter
identification
as many plants have matured early or are dormant.
Suggested Cost is $20
Details:
Eat your own meal and drink plenty of water before you come, only
light
refreshments will be provided. Call beforehand with dietary
restrictions.
Wear long pants and shoes for hiking in tall brush, on slippery and
uneven
surfaces, and up and down hills. Call beforehand with physical
concerns.
Bring a heavy book with which to press and take home your specimens.

*Description above applies with a longer time frame and a focus on 10
