On the Arizona Frontier Ranch Medicine

December 5, 2016 @ 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm

Free

Once your family arrived in the west often there was not a doctor within miles. The medical care of the family landed in the hands of the family. Luckily, it was soon learned that the plants held many secrets for someone who was ill. Chew a little willow bark for a headache, pine needles are rich in vitamin C, a spider web will close up a cut, and so much more. For this presentation a frontier medical bag is used to take and in depth look at illness and how it was treated in late 1800s Arizona.
