SUMMARY:The Medicinal Use of Plants
DESCRIPTION: Location: Barrick Museum Auditorium Dr. Angela O&#8217\;C
	allaghan\, Director\, Master Gardener Program\, UNCE Using plants for 
	medicinal purposes is probably as old as humanity itself. While they s
	erve most often for nutriment\, plants have also been necessary as her
	bal remedies. Long before there were pharmacies\, humans were collecti
	ng the plants growing around them. Prepared as tinctures\, teas\, and 
	as poultices\, plants were essential to maintain health and to help pe
	ople recover from injury and illness. An enormous variety of plants ut
	ilized in this fashion\, and some appear to have had a number of diffe
	rent medicinal properties. Frequently\, the very flavors and aromas th
	at make plants desirable to our taste can also be important for health
	. Accompanying Dr. O&#8217\;Callaghan&#8217\;s multimedia presentation
	 is a museum exhibition on the medicinal use of plants and a live plan
	t exhibit in the neighboring Xeric Garden on the Native American use o
	f native plants.\n Pam Weiss 895-3401
