Connecting with Native Plants Workshop

Environmental Youth Alliance (EYA) is a Vancouver-based non-profit that empowers youth from equity-seeking communities to become environmental stewards. Our workshops seek to create a greater sense of community through activities designed to learn about and connect with nature.

Environmental Youth Alliance (EYA)

Join EYA educator Erica Ellis and Matthew Williams from the  Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Nation to connect with and learn about the Native Plants of BC!

Strathcona Community Garden

During the workshop, you&#x27;ll be guided by Erica &amp; Matthew on a plant walk to learn about plant identification and the medicinal, cultural, and culinary uses of several native plants. We&#x27;ll do some nature journaling, learn about reciprocity with the land, and hear stories rich in traditional knowledge from Matthew. Finally, we&#x27;ll enjoy some tea made from the plants we discover during the workshop. Workshop Fee: EYA is committed to making our events accessible to everyone. This event is offered on a sliding scale of $5 to $15. We’re encouraging a $15 donation from attendees who feel they have the financial capacity, though we welcome all contributions to help offset the specific costs of this workshop.
