Come for a virtual plant walk with Lori Snyder as she teaches us about wild, edible, medicinal and native plants from a First People’s perspective. She will go over different plants in the wild and teach us identification, medicinal and edible uses, and different native plants and the irreplaceable role they play for pollinators and beyond.


About Lori:

Lori Snyder is an Indigenous herbalist and educator with a deep knowledge of wild, medicinal and edible plants that grow in the most common and everyday spaces. Lori Snyder is a descendant from the Powhatan, Dakota, T’suu tina, Nakota, Cree, Nipissing, Dene and Anishinaabe peoples, mixed with French and Celtic ancestry. She was born and raised on the lands of the Squamish people, overlooking the Salish Sea on the Pacific Northwest Coast of Turtle Island—near Vancouver, Canada. Through Lori’s eyes, our immediate surroundings take on a new life and offer a wealth of untapped nutritional and ecological resources. In a time when our connection to the lands where we live grows ever more tenuous, Lori offers us an opportunity to reconnect.

Lori inspires learners of all generations and backgrounds to communicate with the natural world. She guides us to recognize the wisdom of ancestral relations who—for many thousands of years—were nourished by this land and cared deeply for its fate.
