Join ethnobotanist Carrie Canon for a presentation about traditional tribal plant uses in the Mojave Desert.Although the desert may seem like a desolate landscape devoid of life, it is actually home to
hundreds of unique species. Some are only visible or appear alive for a short time, others grow
for hundreds of years, and many are not found anywhere else on earth. Participants will learn
about the many traditional Tribal plants uses, what plant life makes North American Deserts so
unique, and how the Mojave stands apart from the rest of America.
Doors open at 6:30pm.
