Landbased Learning 

Dr Herman J Michell (2018) suggest that Tukwakan was the time to: 

• Goose hunt

• Moose hunt

• Values of sharing, generosity, caring of others

• Preserving and drying moose meat (and fish) 

• Making Moose pemmican and smooked fish

(modern take on pemmican would be to use dried berries, ground dried meat, and a bit of animal fat or peanut butter). 

• Making Structures for smoke houses 

• Planning activities for the winter

• Getting wood ready for the winter

• Preserving berries and vegetables

• Moose hide preparation activities

Other suggestions

• Build a Damn 

• Pond Dip

• Harvest Sage
