Tending the Wild Workshop
Tending the Wild The Workshop Master Basket Weavers will lead interactive programs that provide hands-on experience for those interested in learning more about the cultivation, preparation of plant materials and related cultural values embedded in their ancestral skill.
This educational workshop, presented by California Indian Basket Weavers Association (CIBA) is designed to give participants a clearer understanding of the historic impact of Indigenous Stewardship Methods (ISM) on Californias natural environment as well as information about how to reintroduce those techniques. Topics include the historic use of fire and periodic burning of undergrowth to optimize plant regeneration in traditional gathering sites and identification and preparation of regional basketry plant materials, such as how to peel willow; split and trim redbud shoots; dig white root; and clean and prepare bracken fern.
