Book party to celebrate, “Naming and Knowing: Indigenous Plants of the San Juan Islands” Oct 22, 5:30pm

Explore the plants of the islands through Indigenous knowledge, history, botany, food traditions, and art. Published by Kwiaht, the book is a collaboration among historians, botanists, food specialists, artists, and Indigenous peoples, created so the plants might “hear their old names spoken again in Lekwungen” and so all people can learn how to enjoy and care for the plants that make the islands rich in food and materials.

To be held at the Lopez Island Library on October 22 from 5:30 to 7:00 PM.
