Cacti Grafting & Plant Alkaloid Extraction Workshop

Cacti Grafting & Plant Alkaloid Extraction Workshop

For those of you who couldn't make our last cactus grafting workshop, come join us on Sunday, July 12, from 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM, at the historic Shulgin Farm for a workshop led by Dr. Paul Daley and Bo Xu.

This educational and practical workshop will explore:

• Cactus Grafting Techniques: Learn how to graft Trichocereus cacti, an essential propagation method for improving growth rates in rare and desirable specimens. This session will include a hands-on tutorial covering practical techniques to ensure successful unions. No prior cactus cultivation experience is required.
• Plant Alkaloid Extraction (Non-Cactus): A demonstration of safe methods for extracting legal alkaloids from plant material, offering an introduction to the fascinating chemical properties of plants.

Participants will receive a grafted cactus cutting planted in a small pot to care for and nurture at home.
