Lucille Burr Gringon will share her knowledge of plants and traditional gardening practices of the Menominee and Mohican nations, with a focus on the willow tree. The event will include storytelling and a hands-on activity to create rootstock with the willow. Part of the magic — and the ecological utility — of willow is the ease with which it roots. Willow can be used as a fast-growing plant when seeking to combat destructive non-native plants such as knotweed. Willow also has a rich history of medicinal and artisan uses, which Gringon will speak about and demonstrate.
