Join our instructor, Stanette Amy – the granddaughter of an Ojibwe medicine woman, Keewaydinoquay, to learn traditional, herbal medicine and philosophy. Keewaydinoquay was apprenticed to her own herbal teacher in Northern Michigan. She also attended the University of Michigan and did her PhD work in Ethnobotany (the use of plants by indigenous peoples) and taught at the universities of Michigan and Wisconsin. Stanette is grateful for the nearly 40 years of training she received from her grandmother and is excited to share her knowledge about Foraging Native Plants for food and medicine!
