Join us for a unique professional development experience led by Syilx knowledge carrier Jasmine Peone of Wildrose Native Traditions. This two-hour session includes a plant walk along the Rotary Marsh in Kelowna's downtown. Get to know many different plants growing in this wetland area and learn about some of their edible, medicinal, and technological uses. They include a mix of Indigenous and invasive species. As we conclude the plant walk portion, we will arrive at the wooden information gazebo where Jasmine will lead us in making a miniature tule mat that participants get to take home.

Kamloops Branch is hosting this event in partnership with the Thompson-Nicola Invasive Plant Management Committee (TNIPMC) for a FREE hands-on professional development event hosted at Thompson Rivers University.
