A Carving for the Nulhegan Abenaki

0

This afternoon it was my pleasure and privilege to present a carving of “We are still here” in Abenaki to Tom Beck on behalf of the Nulhegan Band at their cultural center in beautiful Barnet, Vermont.
Tom was also kind enough to show us the remarkable garden of endangered and heirloom vegetables being grown from seed, including Abenaki rose corn, Montpelier squash, and Vermont cranberry beans.
More information on the Nulhegan Band and classes being offered at the Cultural Center can be found at https://www.facebook.com/NulheganAbenakiCulturalCenter/.
And this coming weekend sees the annual Abenaki Heritage Weekend at the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum in Vergennes, Vermont: June 23-24, 10 a.m.-5 p.m.
