The American Botanical Council has two ethnobotanical tours scheduled for 2002. Tours are open to all, and physicians and pharmacists may earn continuing education credit for attending. Participants will travel to South Africa during August 3–12, visiting Botswana and Namibia. Two highlights of this trip will be the Kalahari Desert and the Okavango Delta.

The other tour will be the 9th annual Pharmacy from the Rainforest trip to the Peruvian Amazon, October 26–November 3. This trip has always been the most popular of all of ABC’s tours, and includes an optional extension to the “lost” Inca city, Machu Picchu.

For more information on either of these tours, call Kim West at 512/926-4900 ext. 101, email Kwest@HerbalGram.org, or visit http://www.herbalgram.org/default.asp?c=ed_tours.
