Plants of the Siskiyous: A Camping Adventure
Thursday, June 7th – Sunday, June 10th with Gradey Proctor & Missy Rohs
Join us for an amazing adventure in the Siskiyou bioregion – hands down the most botanically diverse area in the western United States. Spend four days exploring this wild and scenic land, reviewing botany basics, and working with advanced plant identification keys. Day trips will showcase the unique convergence of ecosystems to be found in this area. Meet new plants like the dramatic carnivorous Pitcher Plant and the stunning orchid California Lady Slipper, and spend some quality time with southern Oregon medicinals such as Yerba Santa, Manzanita, Ceanothus, Balsam Root, and Pedicularis. Between plant walks we’ll settle in the shade for class, engage in round-table discussions — or go jump in a river. First aid, creative herbal medicine making, and wildcrafting conundrums will be among the topics covered.
We will carpool from Portland to our campground near Cave Junction, OR.
Cost: $225 – $275, sliding scale. Dinners (vegetarian) included. Registration required by May 31. Email gradey@arctosschool.org for questions or registration details. This class is open to Herbalism & Ecosystem graduates. Please inquire if you have a background in botany and herbalism.
