Virtual Event - #BookDiscussion of “The #Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World”

February 12 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

"Join us for a virtual book discussion of 'The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World,' by #RobinWallKimmerer.

Free. Registration Required."

About the author:
"As Indigenous scientist and author of #BraidingSweetgrass Robin Wall Kimmerer harvests serviceberries alongside the birds, she considers the ethic of reciprocity that lies at the heart of the gift economy. How, she asks, can we learn from #IndigenousWisdom and the plant world to #reimagine what we value most? Our economy is rooted in scarcity, competition, and the hoarding of resources, and we have surrendered our values to a system that actively harms what we love. Meanwhile, the serviceberry’s relationship with the natural world is an embodiment of reciprocity, #interconnectedness, and gratitude. The tree distributes its wealth—its abundance of sweet, juicy berries—to meet the needs of its natural community. And this distribution ensures its own survival. As Kimmerer explains, 'Serviceberries show us another model, one based upon reciprocity, where wealth comes from the quality of your relationships, not from the illusion of self-sufficiency.' "

In #SeanSherman's book, #TheSiouxChef #IndigenousKitchen, he suggests using a mixture of berries - blackberries, strawberries, cranberries, raspberries, blueberries, elderberries -- pretty much anything you have on hand -- if one can't find chokecherries (which is what was used originally)

So, I picked out a few recipes for our Winter holiday feast... All from The #SiouxChef ! Seared duck breast with cider glaze (which utilizes juniper berries and sumac and maple syrup and sage), wild rice pilaf (with wild mushrooms and chestnuts and dried cranberries), and griddled maple squash (with our home-grown squash and local maple syrup). I'll be also trying out stews and soups and breads for later in the season. It's so cool to find recipes which utilize ingredients that we can obtain locally!

Me and my mom at Ganondagan 🥰

We had Corn Mush topped with Buffalo meatballs, Rose Hip sauce and Crispy Manoomin; with a White Corn Piñon Cookie. There was storytelling and some wonderful artists. I’m planning to come back to explore the trails.
