About this Event
Join Earthroots instructor Macy Pilkington on a wild plant walk in Big Oak Canyon! Big Oak is a 39-acre property located on shared ancestral lands of the Juañeno Band of Mission Indians Acjachemen Nation and neighboring Tongva/Gabrieleño and Payómkawichum/Luiseño tribes in Silverado Canyon.
This land is home to 200+ year old oak trees and diverse, native flora, and is the ideal setting to learn about local native plants. During the class, participants will go on a plant walk and connect to flora and fauna. Learn how to identify and distinguish between edible, medicinal, and poisonous plants and explore how they can be used in daily living.
This women-only class is designed to revive the sisterhood of our ancestors who lived in relationship with plants for thousands of years! Gather together with us to learn about local plants while building community and connection.
Each class will include a plant walk and a seasonal hands-on activity.
Who: Women ages 16 and up
Where: Big Oak Canyon (Silverado Canyon)*
*Classes will occasionally be held at other natural areas around Orange County.
