DESCRIPTION:From the mist shrouded sea cliffs to the sun-baked arid expanse of its 
 eastern most regions, the San Francisco Bay area provides us with a chance 
 to view a large variety of botanical specimens all within a relatively 
 small geographical range. Join us as we discover together the diverse array 
 of medicinal plants found growing within these contrasting yet closely 
 interconnected micro-climates. Historical and modern medicinal applications 
 will be covered along with any utilitarian potential. Tips on basic plant 
 identification will be offered, with an emphasis on how to differentiate 
 poisonous look-alike plants from their beneficial counterparts. Plant 
 family characteristics will be discussed as well.\n\n-WINTER SESSION-\nFor 
 most of the country winter brings an end to the annual growth cycle of the 
 plant world but in coastal California it is just the opposite. While it’s 
 true that many plants do recede into a dormant state, it also happens that 
 many others begin coming to life with the first rains of autumn. Grab a 
 raincoat & umbrella and shake off the cabin fever while we trek through the 
 moist woods in search of manzanita, huckleberry, skunk cabbage, 
 Dutchman’s pipe, toothwort, pink flowering current, miner’s lettuce, 
 silk tassel, trillium, calypso orchid, western coltsfoot, hazelnut, (not to 
 mention migrating newts and banana slugs!), and other winter-time bloomers.
