Drawing on his extensive academic experience studying and teaching ethnobotany, biology, anthropology, and American Indian studies, as well as his continued research as a specialist in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula and the Great Lakes region with a focus on the Anishinaabek culture, Dr. Heron will present on incorporating ethnobotany in home gardens. First in a three-part lecture series called "Ethnobotany for Gardeners: Summer Speaker Series at The Strawbale @ Campus Farm." The event is organized by an interdisciplinary group of graduate students through the Dow Sustainability Fellows Program in collaboration with U-M Campus Farm. The culmination of the series will be an edible perennial landscape design for The Strawbale @ Campus Farm, the University’s newly-constructed off-grid natural building. Refreshments will be provided. Events are free, but registration is required to attend. Visit https://tinyurl.com/yykv9qnr to reserve your space at one or more lectures.
