Even though most of the history and knowledge of the Native peoples of southern New England has been “lost”, a rich body of plant lore was preserved and has been passed down to their descendants. This New England Wild Flower Society class will focus on a preliminary analysis of biocultural diversity in New England, including information on 309 plant species gleaned from ethnographic, historical, and archaeological sources. The instructor is Manuel Lizarralde, Professor of Ethnobotany at Connecticut College, and the date is December 1 from 7 – 8:30 at Garden in the Woods in Framingham. $14 for NEWFS members, $16 for nonmembers.
