Plant Lore March 19, 2011

Join us for a walk and a sharing of stories from the world of plants. What is the meaning of their names? How are they used today in ceremonies, celebrations and personal renewal? How did they fit into the cosmology, folklore and day to day beliefs of our ancestors? In this class, we celebrate all of the ways that wild plants have rooted themselves within our culture, collective psyche, and individual life stories. Pre-registration is highly recommended for all weekend programs. Please register by the Wednesday prior to the weekend. To register, call (919) 489-0900. Make sure to check on this web page before coming on the day of the program in case of class updates or cancellations. Updates will be posted alongside the course descriptions for each course. Drop-ins are also welcome if the program is not already full. Directions: All weekend programs take place at Leigh Farm Park in Durham except for the Owl Prowls, which take place at Mason Farm Preserve in Chapel Hill.
