EDIBLE & MEDICINAL PLANTS OF THE BAY AREA:
A BIOREGIONAL EXPLORATION
(Seasonal Herb Walk Series)
From the mist shrouded sea cliffs to the sun-baked arid expanse of its
eastern most regions, the San Francisco Bay area provides us with a
chance to view a large variety of botanical specimens all within a
relatively small geographical range. Join us as we discover together
the diverse array of medicinal plants found growing within these
contrasting yet closely interconnected micro-climates. Historical and
modern medicinal applications will be covered along with any edible
and/or utilitarian potential. Tips on basic plant identification will
be offered, with an emphasis on how to differentiate poisonous look-
alike plants from their beneficial counterparts. Plant family
characteristics will be discussed as well.
