The Benefits and Uses of Oak with Shana Lipner Grover

Herbal Radio

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 was a student of award-winning author Michael Moore and also one of our favorite herbalists, Howie Brounstein. Today, she is the director and primary educator of Sage Country Herbs School of Botanical Studies in San Diego, CA.
