10 EDIBLE PLANTS OF THE DESERT HIKE

Ranger "Crash" led us on a .4 mile hike and spoke of the food and medicinal uses of the Saguaro Cactus, Barrel Cactus, Buckhorn Cholla, Teddybear Cholla, Ocotillo, Palo Verde Tree, Mesquite Tree, Jojoba Bush, Creosote Bush, and Mormon Tea, all of which we saw on the trail. One R&S family provided transportation to a senior from the Fountain Hills Senior Center who wanted to participate in this barrier free hike. Also, 3 non R&S members were introduced to R&S and came along on this trip, which was advertised on several yahoogroups.
