Native Harvest Gathering 2009: Food Preservation Workshop Report

It is with gratitude and a very happy, fulfilled community spirit that we bring to you some updates during these few days before the fall Equinox. Normally, we try to host our four R.E.D. events on the Equinoxes and Solstices, respectively, to honor those four sacred shifts of the year. Being that we need to bend to the will of schedules and weekend time off, we hosted our fall event this past weekend, culminating today with a Longhouse Ceremony and the placement of fresh, new eagle feathers on the prayer pole in downtown Ashland.
