Description:
Ethnobotany is the study of how humans use plants. In this entertaining workshop naturalist Deb Scrivens will share her knowledge of plants traditionally used for food, medicine, baskets and many other uses. You will create cordage and tea from stinging nettles, demonstrating the surprising ways a single plant may be used. She will provide a list of resources for further investigation and discuss the ethics and safety protocols involved in the harvest of wild plants.
