Summertime Herb Walk- July

Wednesday, July 15th, 6:00 pm at Dauner Martin Nature Preserve
One of the best parts of learning about herbalism is finding all the wonderful herbal allies that grow in our region. Michigan is rich in herbs that are potential allies if you know how to identify and use them!
For this class, we will meet at the southern entrance of Dauner-Martin Nature Preserve on Dauner Road. **Parking can be somewhat limited. For those of you who would like to carpool, meet at the Hawthorn & Violet parking lot by 5:45 and we'll go as a group or two and make parking easier!
We will go on a one mile hike through wooded trails and meadow. Along the way, we will stop many times to point out and discuss medicinal plants growing in Michigan. I plan to do three herbs walks over the course of the warm weather on this same trail so that we can see how the plants look in later summer. (May, July & September)
It's always a good idea to wear good close toed walking shoes, and maybe even long pants, and to apply bug deterrent spray. Mosquitoes can be a little intense in July.
We will still plan on going if it’s raining. Cancellation will only happen if weather is dangerous such as a thunderstorm with lightening is imminent. So if it looks like just regular rain, maybe bring an umbrella or rain jacket.
A notebook and camera may also be useful.
