Get to know your local community: Your plant community that is!
Peggy Fogg, who works at the Two Rivers Clinic was the first person who taught me how to really look at, smell, taste, explore, and even listen to plants, and I am very excited that she has agreed to take us on a two-hour adventure. We will be walking in the Union Village Dam area behind the clinic, which has gorgeous trails and a wide variety of plants. During our walk, we will focus on learning to identify at least ten local wild plants used as traditional everyday food and medicine, (particularly those that would be beneficial for the people in the group) and we will speak of many more that we find along the way. Traditional ways of working with, and learning from, the plants will also be taught. All questions are welcome, as are cameras to help you remember. Peggy will bring some sample dishes and teas made of the plants we will learn. Bring a cup for tea tasting. Class size limited to 8 for best experience. To sign up contact Didi Pershouse at The Center for Sustainable Medicine or call 802-785-2503.
