Sunday, June 12 -- Medical herbalist Julie Mitchell introduced a lucky group of 13 to the beneficial plants of Mount Independence during this two-hour hike. We were hoping for sunshine, but had to make due with rain. The wet weather didn't dampen anyone's spirits, though, and we had a good time learning some surprising uses from some of the common plants we encounter every day.
