Since time immemorial, as the saying goes, people in what is now Washington and British Columbia farmed the sea with a type of environmental engineering called clam gardening."It was stolen from us," Swinomish Tribal Senator Alana Quintasket
If you’ve ever heard the tribal saying, "when the tide goes out, the table’s set," then you have a sense of how important shellfish are to Native cultures in this part of the world. Clam gardens grow four times more butter clams and twice as many littleneck clams as unterraced beaches do, according to a study of dozens of ancient clam gardens around Quadra Island, British Columbia. Young littleneck clams planted in the centuries-old terraces grew nearly twice as fast, making more local protein available to shellfish harvesters.
Between forced relocation and other human rights abuses, Canadian governments almost stamped out this ancient practice.Underwood says it’s been a long haul, but Coast Salish people on both sides of the border are bouncing back."I’m just grateful my kids were able to be here and to witness and be a part of what will be here for generations to come," Julius said.
