SUMMARY:Tucson Chapter Meeting; Dara Saville\, "Ecological Herbalism: Understanding the Medicinal Properties of Plants through Relationships."
DESCRIPTION:Native medicinal plants play a prominent role in the biological and cultural worlds we inhabit everyday. As iconic landscapes of the Southwest evolve\, observing plant interactions with their environment can inform our understanding of botanical medicine and illustrate the impacts of economic land use and climate change. Observing plants’ ecological relationships provides insights about how they can act as healing agents in the land and for people\, too. We will explore this concept through the examples of several native medicinal plant species growing in different habitats of our region. \nMs. Saville is an herbalist and community educator  and author of The Ecology of Herbal Medicine: A Guide to Plants and Living Landscapes of the American Southwest\, scheduled for publication in March 2021.  She lives in Albuquerque\, NM.

SUMMARY:Flagstaff Chapter meeting April 20\, 2021 - Ashley Hall - Yellow Bluestem (Bothriochloa ischaemum): An Encroaching Invasive Grass Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Ashley Hall \n \n \nYellow Bluestem (Bothriochloa ischaemum) is a perennial grass introduced to the United States from Europe and Asia in the early 1900s as a way to control erosion and as a forage species. In the past several years\, this species has become an emerging invasive in Arizona\, negatively affecting the habitats it invades in many ways including economically\, environmentally\, and/or ecologically. \nAshley Hall received her B.Sc. in Rangeland Ecology and Management with a minor in Geographic Information Systems from the University of Arizona (UA) in 2009 and a M.Sc. 2011. After finishing her M.Sc.\, Ashley began working for UA Cooperative Extension (UACE) as a Research Specialist for the Cooperative Rangeland Monitoring Program assisting the Bureau of Land Management in establishing a vegetation monitoring protocol. She is currently UACE Faculty working in Gila and Pinal Counties\, focusing on Rangeland Management and Animal Science programming. \n  \nAll talks are at 7pm on the third Tuesday of the month.
