Moon of the Salmonberry
Summary:
In 2021, CSSP started a collaboration with the Swinomish people by creating a video series corresponding to the 13 Moons curriculum, offering a video for each moon. Cultural Narrative:
Much of June is the Moon of the Salmonberry. During this moon, fruits such as salmonberry and red huckleberry are ripening and ready to harvest, signaling the start of many salmon runs. Activities during this moon focus on celebrating the coming os summer by preparing low-sugar salmonberry soda and a healing salve used for treating bumps and scrapes.
