Restoration: Soil and Soul
March 14  10am-2pm

In this Saturday workshop, participants will locate themselves in watershed place and its history.  Here, Creek Hollow Wash runs through an oak preserve with riparian habitat.  The hillsides offer chaparral ecology.  In an interpretative hike through native habitats, we explore the environmental importance and medicinal uses of native plants through five (or more) senses.  With a variety of potted native plants on hand,  we will plant and restore their distribution on the Retreat Center grounds.
