Wild Plant Culture: Restoring Native Edible and Medicinal Plant Communities
Jared Rosenbaum
For millennia the North American landscape was tended for the abundance and diversity of native food, medicinal plants, and other cultural plants. Contemporary ecological restoration goals seldom seek to restore the cultural relationships we have with plants. We’ll discuss how restoring edible and medicinal plant species can deepen our reciprocal relationships with plant communities and foster a culture of long-term stewardship.
