Lowcountry Lecture: Foraging Wild Herbs - Becoming the Ecosystem

Tuesday January 20th 
Lecture: Foraging Wild Herbs - Becoming the Ecosystem
April Punsalan | Wild Herb Academy

Learn why foraging is integral for good health and learn which wild herbs you can easily form a relationship with along the Carolina Coast. Learn the latest science about how when we forage wild hers, our mind, body, and spirit litterally become the ecosystem! Foraging, when rooted in reciprocity, reinforces ecological restoration and fosters physiological and psychological alignment with the local ecosystem -- reminding us that humans are not separate from nature, but embedded within. We are nature.

Lectures are typically hed the 3rd Tuesday of the month at 6:30pm, and tasty snacks will be provided for socializing (BYO non-alcoholic beverage or water bottle). We meet in The Citadel's Byrd Hall Auditorium,  Jones Avenue, Charleston, SC 29403. Enter Byrd Hall from Jones Ave and go up the short steps to the Auditorium. Free parking is available after 5:00pm in the parking lot south of Richardson Street, accessible from Mims Ave. 
Field trips are generally held the Saturday following the lecture. Registration is required and opens two weeks before the trip.
