4th Saturday Nature Walk: Ethnobotany
agosto 24, 2024 @ 8:00 am - 10:00 am
Join us on a nature walk with Josie Gonzales, a Certified Interpretive Guide, and Texas Master Naturalist. She’ll discuss Ethnobotany — how people of a particular culture and region make use of native plants. Plants sustain people not only as food and as medicine but provide materials, dyes, tannins, wax, latex, soap, resin, and oil.
There will be a brief overview of ethnobotanical concepts prior to the walk. On the walk itself, a wide variety of forbs, shrubs, and trees will be discussed from the standpoint of medicinal, utilitarian, and nutritional uses.
Note: Please wear closed-toed shoes, dress for the weather, and bring some water to drink! Restrooms are available at the Urban Ecology Center.
This talk is part of our monthly 4th Saturday Nature Walk series provided by our Alamo Area Master Naturalists and the Alamo Group of the Sierra Club, with the Native Plant Society of Texas, San Antonio.
