  • Osha: Bear Medicine of the West 

Speaker: Feather Jones. As a keystone plant species, Osha, Ligusticum porteri, has always played a necessary role in traditional medicine. Although it is abundant in many areas, it is still locally overharvested. Learn about sustainability techniques to preserve this wild medicine, and investigate the medicinal qualities of this revered plant. Make an antiviral respiratory syrup with take-home samples.
