Park It: Hayward hike to explore how Ohlone used plants

Beverly Ortiz of the East Bay Regional Park District shows David Van Riper, then 3, of Oakland how to weave a basket during a previous Ohlone cultural event at Hayward's Garin Regional Park. Garin Regional will be the venue for a program May 20 about Native American plant uses in which an East Bay Regional Park District naturalist will lead a 3-mile hike while discussing how the Ohlone tribes used plants for food, medicine, shelter and tools.
