Nature House: Let's get Medicinal!
Sunday, July 4, 2021 at 2:06PM Stop and smell the (native) flowers! Join us at the People's Apothecary Garden this week to learn about some useful plants found in your own backyard. The garden is in full bloom after all the hard work of ThINC students from last Summer. We will be examining some local and exotic species of medicinal plants found in the garden and catching up on the "buzz" of the neighbourhood honeybee hive.
