# Event Details - **Event Name**: "Native American Medicines of the Southeast" by Award-Winning Author and Educator, Mark Warren - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 20 Nov, 2025 at 06:00 pm - **Event Description**: Mark Warren, owner of the nationally renowned Medicine Bow Wilderness School in Dahlonega, GA, has been teaching about native plants, trees, and survival skills to adults and children for over half a century. Mark believes today’s society can — and should — learn some valuable lessons and skills regarding the use of native plants. The diverse flora of the Southeast once provided everything that was needed by the original inhabitants. Our modern day ignoring of these gifts is what separates us from a life of truly interacting with nature on an intimate level. And that loss has, no doubt, contributed to our careless handling of the land. The good news is that this trend can be reversed, one person at a time. This program covers plants that may be used for common ailments, ranging from minor cuts, stings, head lice, and rashes to gall stones, dysentery, nausea, and skin cancer. Techniques for field preparations are included. About Mark: Mark Warren is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the University of Georgia.
