[NPSBC] NPSBC presentation on Thursday, March 7: Research on the Ethnobotanical Virtues of Devil's Club and Chaga

[Dawn Hanna]

Hi everyone, 

Just a reminder about this Thursday March 7 NPSBC South Coast presentation. Details below:

Research on the Ethnobotanical Virtues of Devil's Club and Chaga
with Thomas Courtemanche
Out of our forests come some of the most fantastic and powerful medicines. One has been the most
used medicinal plant on the NW coast for years and the other is a circumboreal superherb emerging as
a powerful medicine. Respectively known as devil’s club (Oplopanax horridus) and chaga mushroom (Inonotus obliquus), they might do wonders for our health. We will look at the ecology, biology and mythology behind these plants; be prepared to sample these fascinating medicines with geographer, outdoor enthusiast and UBC horticultural student Thomas Courtemanche.

Presentations are held at 7 p.m. in the Cedar Room at VanDusen Botanical Garden at 37th and Oak in Vancouver. Admission is free for NPSBC members, a $2 donation is suggested for non-members. If you have any questions, just email npsbcmembership at gmail.com
