#NativeAmericaCalling: A Native cafe, #CamasRestoration and the #IndigenousFoodPyramid

Friday, May 29, 2026

Excerpt: "Camas, a wild purple flower with an onion-like bulb, has been an important plant for Native people, mainly in the northwest. This is the time of year for harvesting and cooking them.

"Some Culture-keepers are reconnecting with traditional teachings and recipes handed down across generations. But environmental and land use changes are setting up more access barriers. The #ConfederatedTribesOfGrandRonde is one tribe working to protect this significant plant through a series of projects in #Oregon."
