Native Plant Walk with Lake McCullough

June 8 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

This is the first of three plant walks that focus on the uses of native plants as food and medicine.  These popular, free walks are led by certified herbalist, Lake McCullough. In June, we will meet at San Jose Ct. and hike into Martinez Canyon.  This slow paced walk is about 3 miles roundtrip and may involve some moderately steep and rocky terrain.  We will be looking for herbs, wildflowers and edible plants in the ponderosa pine ecotone
Additional walks will be offered on July 13 and August 3.  Those walks will take us into higher elevation areas near Wolf Creek Pass.  In order to allow more people to experience these fun, educational walks, we are requesting that you sign up for only one walk this summer.  To provide a good experience, space is limited on each walk. No dogs please.
To sign up for the June walk, please call Lake at 970-398-0923 or see her at Earthsense Herbals, 144 Pagosa St.  Spaces fill quickly for these walks.  We are thankful for Lake who volunteers her time to educate people about the plants that grow in our area. And she’s a lot of fun too!!!
