Our modern day ignoring of these gifts is what separates us from a life of truly interacting with nature on an intimate level. And that loss has\, no doubt\, contributed to our careless handling of the land. The good news is that this trend can be reversed\, one person at a time. This program covers plants that may be used for common ailments\, ranging from minor cuts\, stings\, head lice\, and rashes to gall stones\, dysentery\, nausea\, and skin cancer. Techniques for field preparations are included. \nMark Warren is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the University of Georgia. At Medicine Bow\, his nationally renowned wilderness school in the Southern Appalachians\, he teaches nature classes and primitive survival skills. Warren has written extensively about nature for local and national magazines. He lectures on Native American history and survival skills\, and Western frontier history presenting at museums and cultural centers around the country. He is the recipient of the 2024 New Mexico – Arizona Book Award for his historical novel on Billy the Kid\, A Last Serenade for Billy Bonney. His Wyatt Earp\, An American Odyssey trilogy was honored by WWA’s Spur Awards\, The Historical Novel Society\, and the 2020 Will Rogers Medallion Awards. Warren is a 2022 Georgia Author of the Year recipient for his book Song of the Horseman (Finalist\, Literary Fiction). Indigo Heaven\, The Westering Trail Travesties\, and Nate\, The Texas Story are all Will Rogers Medallion Award winners. Warren has twenty traditionally published books: from Lyons Press\, Two Winters in a Tipi and Secrets of the Forest (a four-volume series on nature and primitive skills\,) from Two Dot\, Wyatt Earp\, An American Odyssey\, from Speaking Volumes\, Indigo Heaven\, Song of the Horseman\, Last of the Pistoleers\, A Tale Twice Told\,  Moon of the White Tears\, A Copperhead Summer\, The Last Real Place and A Tale Twice Told\, and from Wolfpack\, The Westering Trail Travesties\, A Last Serenade for Billy Bonney\, Nate Champion: The Texas Story\, and Nate Champion: The Wyoming Story. \n  \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLunchbox Learning is generously sponsored by: URL:https://upcountryhistory.org/event/lunchbox-learning-73/ LOCATION:Upcountry History Museum\, 540 Buncombe Street\, Greenville\, SC\, 29601\, United States CATEGORIES:Events,Highlight,Programs ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://upcountryhistory.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/2026-LL-Web-Banners-4.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260806T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260806T203000 DTSTAMP:20260604T163939 CREATED:20260205T201623Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260515T195423Z UID:14926-1786037400-1786048200@upcountryhistory.org SUMMARY:Neighborhood Night DESCRIPTION:Access for All!\nUHM is open on the first Thursday evening of select months throughout 2026.\n  \nThe Museum operates with the firm belief that its exhibits\, events\, and programming should be accessible to all\, regardless of cultural\, ethnic\, geographic\, or socioeconomic differences.
