In honor and recognition of Indigenous Peoples’ Day, HHS is pleased to host this virtual presentation, “Natural Medicines,” with Stockbridge-Munsee Band of Mohican Indians’ herbalist, Misty Cook. In this program, Misty will be talking about her family history, as well as the gathering, drying, preservation, and uses of the medicinal plants used by the Stockbridge-Munsee Band of Mohicans Tribe, both past and present.

This program will be presented entirely online via a link received after registration.

Misty Cook, M.S., studied medicines in-depth for over seven years in preparation for the completion of her book, “Medicine Generations.” This included identifying, gathering, drying, preserving for use throughout the year, preparing, and making them available to those in need. She is a cultural consultant with a Masters in Management, providing diversity trainings on many topics, including Native American students in education, Native American history, Native American games, and of course, medicines.
