AT: Ethnobotany of the Texas Prairie

To help sustain our country’s rich ethnobotanical heritage, Kelly Kindscher, professor in environmental studies and senior scientist at the Kansas Biological Survey at the University of Kansas, will discuss conservation of prairie plants used by Native Americans in the Great Plains – from Texas to Canada – for food, medicine, and craft.

In addition, Katy Prairie Conservancy and Texas Master Naturalists will be on-hand to provide actionable tips for participants interested in growing their own pocket prairies using seed packets provided to all who attend in-person.

Non-member fee of $25 for in-person participants includes general admission to the Garden. Members receive a $10 discount.

For those unable to attend in-person, the live lecture will be available via Zoom for $10 to non-members or $5 for members.
