Join us on Thursday, April 28 from 5:30 to 6:30 pm to hear Laura Reeves of Prairie Shore Botanicals share the wealth of information that she’s compiled in her book, Laura Reeves’ Guide to Useful Plants. Ms. Reeves has a passion for the natural landscape and all the wonders contained within. She’ll give us a quick tutorial on many native Manitoba plants and their little-known nutritional and healing properties, as well as many practical uses and delicious recipes that we can all make at home.
