Cultural & Medicinal Plants Workshop – St. George

October 4, 2019 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am

Free

We invite you to learn about Southern Paiute cultural plants including creosote, cedar, mesquite, globe mallow, prickly pear cactus, yucca and willow.  Then learn to make your own split-twig willow figurine. These intricate figurines are made from a single willow twig, split down the middle that is carefully folded into animal shapes like deer and big horn sheep.

We’ll be offering follow-up plant ID hikes in the Red Cliffs National Conservation Area with former Shivwits Band Chairman Glenn Rogers.

Free to the public!
