Spring Wildflower Hike in the Citico Creek Wilderness

May 2018. Perfect day for learning obout Appalachian spring wildflowers with Holli Richey, herbalist extrordinaire. Taking the North Fork Trail of the Citico Creek Wilderness, we saw a wonderful diversity of flora, with Holli talking about the common medicinal uses for these plants, as well as the importance of respecting these often vulnerable species and their complex roles in the forest communnity.
