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 edible and/or 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. 
 -WINTER SESSION- For 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. \n\nSan Francisco Presidio (Coastal Trail):
