Medicinal Plant Hike
This hike will be led by Dr. James Adams from the USC School of Pharmacy and coauthor of “Healing with Medicinal Plants of the West - Cultural and Scientific Basis for Their Use”. Topics to be discussed: ways the Chumash use native plants as medicine; the role these plants play in everyday healthcare; and tips on where to purchase and how to grow your own medicinal plants. We will be on a moderately steep trail with uneven footing. There will be several stops to discuss the plants and their medicinal uses.
All Trails & Open Space programs are sponsored by the Glendale Parks & Open Space Foundation.
