Review: Wild Medicinal Plants Nature Walk

Founder Christopher Nyerges led us through the woods at Pasadena's Hahamongna Watershed Park, foraging medicinal plants and 
mushroom hunting. We spotted chicken of the woods growing on a carob tree and green gilled lepiota (Chlorophyllum molybdites).

Ethnobotany is a big field, and Ray Cirino is up the hill at the Los Angeles Permaculture Convergence 2023 at the commune/art colony (Zorthian Ranch). We're going to cob the external landscape to design a better water catchment system for the apocalypse.
Tim Martinez is trying to save the Arroyo Seco through the foundation. So if there's anything to learn, learn meditation, and follow it with foraging. Then even in the aftermath, there will be survival and progress.

Today's class under an eclipsing sun had a massive turnout. A group of nursing students from a local university joined for class credit. And LAMS' Bat's women's group of plant foragers we're doing mycology next to the group.

So more than 50 people were present in two groups, picking up plant knowledge books, eating wild mushrooms and edibles, as Nyerges regaled everyone with quips and humorous anecdotes about his time on his TV survival program, The X-Show.

Nyerges was in Los Angeles so long that Huell Howser caught wind of him and came by for an episode of Visiting with Huell Howser.
