SUMMARY:Miwok History Walk
DESCRIPTION: August 10th \nA Walk Honoring Native Californians: \nMiwok Life at China Camp\n\nIndigenous coastal Miwok people have lived and thrived in the China Camp area for over 5000 years. Before Spanish settlers forced the native population off their land and into missions\, the Miwok people flourished due to an abundance of food and natural materials from the oak woodland forest and the coastal bay shoreline. It is estimated that there were over several thousand Coastal Miwok in the North Bay at the time of the Spanish arrival in 1769. Most of this population was dispersed within 100 years. Many died of European diseases. Miwok people still live in the Bay Area today\, with the largest group at Graton Rancheria in Sonoma County. Join naturalist Jerry Coe for an educational walk as he discusses the pre-colonial settlements of the coastal Miwok people at China Camp. He will cover how they lived\, what they wore and ate\, what they used for medicine\, and some of their common cultural traditions and folklore.  \n  \n Date: August 10th \nTime: 9am-11am \nLocation:  Turtleback Trailhead \nSpace is limited and reservations are required. \nTo reserve\, send email to: \nchinacamp.programs@gmail.com or call (415) 456-0766. \nInclude your name\, the number of seats you need\, and your phone #. \nWe will reply to confirm your reservation. \nCancellation announcements will be posted on the FOCC website homepage.

SUMMARY:Naturalist Book Club
DESCRIPTION: August 25th \nNaturalist Book Club\nJoin us as we discuss David Rains Wallace’s captivating book- Mountains and Marshes- Exploring the Bay Area’s Natural History. \n\nDescribed by the San Francisco Chronicle as “a writer in the tradition of Henry David Thoreau\, John Muir\, and other self-educated seers”\, David Rains Wallace turns his attention to one of the most distinctive corners of California: the San Francisco Bay Area.
