The Benefits and Uses of Oak | Featuring Shana Lipner Grover

Join Shana Lipner Grover--clinical herbalist, field botanist, and nutrition educator--as she brings us to an oak woodland at Mount Pisgah Arboretum and discusses everything from the usnea that hangs from the branches to the uses of oak bark and acorns. Historically, oak trees have been utilized for the tannins in their bark, their prolific food source of acorns, and their important role in the ecosystems they create.
🤓 Shana is a clinical herbalist, health and nutrition educator, and field botanist. She was a student of award-winning herbalist Michael Moore and also one of Mountain Rose Herbs' favorite herbalists, Howie Brounstein. Today, she is the director and primary educator of Sage Country Herbs School of Botanical Studies in San Diego, CA.

Just crush the acorns you've collected for the day and leave them in a porous bag in the creek tied to a rock and come back for them in a few days.

Hi there! I'm pretty sure Shana mentioned in a past video comment where her belt was from but I'm having trouble finding it at the moment :) She currently offers online lectures through her herbalism school Sage Country Herbs, you can find that link here: www.sagecountryherbs.com/sales_community_herbalism_program. Shana is also super responsive if you ever want to reach out on her social media channels. Those can be found in the video description! Have a lovely day! - Gracie

Thank you for reaching out! Due to the vast multitude of fungal varieties, you would need a precise identification to be able to research uses and benefits. I apologize that I can not be more helpful, however, we would love to find out what you learn! 🌿
