SUMMARY:Ethnobotany (Bring extra water due to heat)
DESCRIPTION:Location: Phil Hardberger Park\, 8400 NW Military Hwy\, San Antonio\, TX 78231 \n\n\n\nThe focus of this month’s event is Ethnobotany. Our presenter\, Josie Gonzales\, is 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. \n\n\n\nThere 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. Participants will have a chance to look at and ask questions about these plants. \n\n\n\nPlease arrive BEFORE 8;00 am to sign up for an 8:00 am start. \n\n\n\nMinors must be accompanied by an adult parent/guardian. This presentation is only appropriate for dogs who are leashed and socialized. DIFFICULTY: Easy–it is definitely suitable for families\, with flat terrain\, and a slow pace. This will be a mile walk\, and the event will last about two hours\, ending back at the Urban Ecology Center around 10:00 am. \n\n\n\nThe trail is a natural surface so be sure to wear sturdy shoes and\, dependent on the weather\, bring water\, sun protection\, and dress appropriate for the day and season. $3 individual or $5 family donations to the PHP Conservancy are suggested to support the activities in the park. \n\n\n\nThis event’s sponsors are the Phil Hardberger Park Conservancy\, the San Antonio Parks and Recreation Department’s Natural Areas Office\, the Alamo Area Master Naturalists\, the Native Plant Society of Texas-San Antonio chapter\, and the Alamo Group of the Sierra Club. \n\n\n\nContact Stan Drezek (stanwendre@gmail.com) for additional information or questions. \n\n\n\nLEARN MORE AND REGISTER
