Image: Pedicularis densiflora (Indian Warrior) at Willis Evans CanyonPlease join me for the first native plant walk of the season on Sunday - April 5th at 11am -- Samuel P. Taylor State Park.
Discover the native plants of West Marin from an herbal perspective. I'll be talking about ethnobotanical (historical) as well as contemporary medicinal uses of our native plant life, with some folk lore and myths thrown in for extra fun!
We'll meet at the front entrance near the ranger's booth at 11am. Bring a lunch and water and be prepared for the weather (hat, sweater). I'll reschedule if it's raining. Optional: notepad and pen, camera, field lens.
The walk will cover less than a mile at a very slow and easy pace (no hills and we stop a lot to talk about the plants). Well behaved dogs on a leash and children are welcome.
Suggested donation of $10 will help out a wonderful organization, United Plant Savers, dedicated to restoring native populations of endangered medicinal plants. Check them out at: http://www.unitedplantsavers.org/
