Plant Identification & Creating an Herbarium

Adirondack Folk School 51 Main St., Lake Luzerne

We live in a very diverse area here in the Adirondacks. There are so many medicinal herbal plants that grow in the wild. We will seek out the common medicinal herbal plants that grow in our area and take cuttings to create a simple Herbarium which helps remember the plants that we have identified. Lise will discuss how the plants are used and their impact on wellness. We will also cover popular herbal garden plants that grow well here in the Adirondacks.
