MacKinnon a big hit!A crowd of more than 200 filled the Beban Lounge for the March 4 presentation by ecologist Andy MacKinnon....
A crowd of more than 200 filled the Beban Lounge for the March 4 presentation by Andy MacKinnon, co-author of the popular Plants of Coastal British Columbia and the recently released Edible and Medicinal Plants of Canada.
MacKinnon, an ecologist and forester, gave an informative and informal presentation on the island's edible plants, punctuated with speculation on what a Sasquatch might find tasty. Or was it speculation at all? Thanks go to Andy for his presentation, along with NALT's Edible Plant Project team members and our Seminar Series volunteers for organizing the event. Watch the NALT website for information on this year's second presentation, scheduled for the fall. Thanks also to everyone who made a donation to NALT on March 4. Your contributions totaled more than $1,100, and will help support our efforts to protect ecologically-important lands in the Nanaimo area and raise public awareness. |
