THE TEN MULTI-PURPOSE PLANTS YOU SHOULD KNOW
2021-08-20 19:00 - 21:00 (America/Los_Angeles)
Friday, August 20, 7 p.m.
THE TEN MULTI-PURPOSE PLANTS YOU SHOULD KNOW for food, medicine, fire, etc.
We will discuss the 10 plants that we deem the most important to know from the standpoint of Food, Medicine, Fire, Water, Shelter, and “other.” These are common “multi-purpose” plants, useful for more than only food. The plants we will be discussing are found widely throughout North America, and are very common in the overall Southwest. Each plant will be rated on a scale of its relative usefulness in each of the key areas. Rather than think in terms of simply “edibility,” you will see that the plants we discuss are multi-purpose, and useful for many of life’s necessities.
You’ll also learn which of Christopher Nyerges’ books contain the most detailed information about these multi-purpose plants. A discussion and social time will follow.

SATURDAY, JULY 16, 10 am to 2 pm

THIS IS AN ALL-NEW CLASS, TAUGHT BY KEITH FARRAR

The Art (and Science) of outdoor photography.
TESTIMONIAL: “I thought your material in your class was terrific. I don’t consider myself a professional photographer but I have taken many classes and workshops from professional photographers. Your presentation was one of the best overviews of photographic principles I have seen. It was clear how much time/effort you put into the material–very succinct yet comprehensive. Nicely done! — Dave

Held at Hahamongna Watershed Park, upper area. Can’t find us? Call Christopher at 323 605 7283

While art may be subjective, the technical side of photography needs to be understood to achieve desired consistent results.

This class is led by Keith Farrar, a professional photographer for over 30 years. He will cover the topics that will let you achieve the great photographic results you desire.
He will address exposure, how your camera light meter “thinks”, and the ISO-Aperture-Shutter Speed relationship. You’ll learn about contrast breakdown, lighting tips, hyperfocal focus, and selecting the proper focal length lens. Yes, these things matter! You’ll learn about circles of confusion, composition basics, simple outdoor portraiture, and more.

While some of the material covered will relate to your phone camera, this class is more appropriate for those using Digital or Film Cameras. No particular camera brand
will be covered as the controls are different for each brand. All concepts, however, can easily be applied to your particular camera brand.

You can see some samples of Keith’s work here: https://natureskillsschool.com/years-of-photography

PHOTOS BY KEITH

WHO NEEDS THIS CLASS: This class is for anyone looking to improve on, and achieve consistent photographic results. Both for amateur and perspiring professional photographers.

GOALS: The goal of this class is to give you a better understanding of the technical and artistic side of photography

THIS IS WHAT YOU WILL TAKE HOME FROM THIS CLASS: You will have a much better understanding of the most important technical aspects of photography, outdoor lighting, basic outdoor portraiture and nature photography.

Our program will teach you how to handle each priority, which will greatly boost your attitude when dealing with an actual survival situation. With this information you will learn how to put together a complete survival kit with components that you will understand how to use and that are easily acquired.

He has been a State Park and National Park Service volunteer for the last 10 years, taking kids and adults on nature walks, as well as teaching First Aid, CPR and Stop the Bleed classes to park volunteers.Keith teaches for The School of Self Reliance , which has run for over 50 years and led by renowned author, ethnobotanist and survival skills instructor, Christopher Nyerges.
