We will take a leisurely stroll down the trail, looking at some of the abundance of edible and medicinal wild plants that grow in our area. Many of the plants we will see will be common backyard plants and garden &quot;weeds&quot; while others are primarily found in woodland areas. We will discuss ID, harvesting, and uses of these plants as well as safe and ecologically responsible wildcrafting practices.Josh Medlin is a massage and shiatsu therapist, living in Anderson with his wife Sybilla and children Wren and Corina. His bodywork practice, White River Shiatsu, is located in downtown Anderson. Along with practicing massage and shiatsu, he offers instruction in tai chi and qi gong.
