DESCRIPTION:Come see a slide show by Rick Flores on how, for thousands of years, 
 California Indians managed ecosystems and plant communities in the Monterey 
 Bay area north to Ano Nuevo and including Mt. Umunhum. These practices 
 sustained ecosystems and affected the composition of plant communities that 
 were first seen by European explorers. These indigenous skills of tending 
 the land are known as traditional ecological knowledge. \n \nToday, the 
 Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, descendants of the Mutsun and Awaswas speaking 
 survivors the Santa Cruz and San Juan Bautista missions, are working hard 
 to restore and relearn the wisdom of their ancestors in order to steward 
 their traditional tribal territory once again. \n\nThrough the formation of 
 the Amah Mutsun Land Trust, they have forged relationships with 
 environmental groups, state and federal agencies, conservation 
 organizations and educational institutions in an effort to gain access to 
 their traditional tribal territory and relearn these practices.\n 
 \nRick’s talk will focus on this traditional ecological knowledge and how 
 it is being cultivated through innovative projects and restoration work at 
 places like Pinnacles National Park. Native gardens have also been 
 established at Castle Rock State Park, Pie Ranch, UCSC Arboretum and San 
 Juan Bautista.\n\nRick Flores is the Director of Horticulture and Steward 
 of the Amah Mutsun Relearning Program at the UCSC Arboretum and Botanical 
 Garden and is also a Research Associate for the Amah Mutsun Land Trust. He 
 enjoys being outdoors hiking, backpacking, fishing, mountain biking and 
 bird watching. \n \n\nWhen: Thursday, January 17th at 7:00 PM. Come at 6:30 
 for healthy snacks and    socializing with other environmental and plant 
 loving folks.\n \nWhere: The Live Oak (Green) Grange Hall at 1900 17th Ave. 
 near Capitola Rd.   \n \nFree. Donations appreciated. \n \nAll are welcome. 
 Tell your friends.\n
