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-SPRING SESSION-\n\nAs 
 the rains begin to recede and the days lengthen, we are reminded that 
 spring has arrived. All around, lush carpets of green span the horizon as 
 many plants begin their annual ascent towards the sun. Come celebrate the 
 bountiful Bay Area springtime while learning about the many plants of the 
 season, such as: Baneberry, Balsam Root, Oregon Grape, Seep Willow, 
 Dandelion, Chickweed, Bleeding Heart, Bayberry, Mullein, and more!\n\nSan
