Join us for this unique opportunity to explore the woodlands and marshes
of Genesis Farm with plant enthusiast Frank Cook. Learn to identify
food and medicine that is specific to our Ridge and Valley bioregion,
while also gaining insight and perspective about plants worldwide,
and how the healing traditions surrounding them are quickly arriving
into a new global context.
