Public Star Gazing
Sat, July 26, 8:30pm – 11:00pm

Roadsides Remedies*
Chamomile ...
*I am not advocating the use of any of these plants - or any of those described in "Mrs. M. Grieves' Modern Herbal" - as remedies but I think that it's interesting to know the history of plants and what they were used for before family physicians and CVS came on the scene.
According to legend, "Joe Pye" was a Native American medicine man from Salem, Massachusetts who earned fame and fortune curing colonial settlers of typhus with his eponymous herb. Reference to the medicinal properties of "Joe Pye's Weed" first occurred in 1818 in the "Manual of Botany, for the Northern and Middle States of America: 2nd edition."
Cardinal Flower
Lobelia cardinalis
Native Americans had several medicinal uses for Cardinal Flower, but now - in this part of New York State - it's treasured for the pleasure it gives the eye. Although there is far less along Loomis Road than in other years, due no doubt to the recent "ditching" by the highway department, anyone paddling the Sangerfield River through Nine Mile Swamp is in for a treat.

Enjoy the Weekend, everyone!
