Bains, Alisha; Hodgson, Chasz; Bikadi, Sheila; Min, Jason; Leung, Larry 2023-08-15 The herbologist and doula at the Community Health Centre for a BC First Nation currently offers workshops to the community on local traditional medicines and plants. Certain plants only grow during specific times of the year, making the window to offer workshops fairly short. This project was a collaboration between students from the Entry-to-Practice PharmD Program at the University of British Columbia and the First Nation to create a booklet outlining the workshops offered each season, corresponding with the availability of plants used in traditional medicines. The project members interviewed the herbologist to gather relevant information. A booklet was created to present the workshops offered by the herbologist and information on the plants’ availability by season and traditional uses.
