Let’s welcome spring by exploring the wonder of wild weeds! Join clinical herbalist Mo Katz-Christy for a stroll to learn about the medicine, botany, and magic of medicinal herbs. We will ask, what does it mean to look towards our local plants for medicine, especially when our soils are contaminated and invasive plants abound? What does it mean for a plant to be a “weed”, and where do humans belong in relationship to our ecosystem? We will discuss the bounty of medicinal plants in New England and their specific indications and properties. Bring a notebook and get ready to scribble fast as we delight in the bounty of our neighborhood!

This event will take place outdoors. In the case of inclement weather, it will be relocated to Morrissey Hall.
