Rooted: Black Cohosh

The mid-summer forest is largely green, but the flowering of black cohosh is a spectacle not to be missed.

This is episode 2 of the series ROOTED, a series that covers one wild plant species with a New Jersey focus and stars an unlikely ecologist, and a distinctive habitat. ROOTED is the web series that teaches you about wild plants in wild places, and why they matter.


Produced by Hundred Year Films and Wild Ridge Plants.

Thanks to the series sponsors for making Rooted possible and free for all: New Jersey Highlands Coalition, Scott & Hella McVay, and Severine Von Tscharner Fleming.


Filmmaker Jared Flesher is working on another film about Acer saccharum, the sugar maple. Take a look at his trailer for the documentary film, "Sugar House Yantra," featuring New Jersey maple syrup farmer Charlize Katzenbach and consider helping to fund the production at https://gofund.me/bd027230
