Nomadic Foodways Calendar

Title

Nomadic Foodways Calendar

Description

The United Tribes Technical College (UTTC) Extension Program prepared Food System Calendars to offer a glimpse of foodways followed by indigenous people in their region. UTTC's Food System Calendars are designed for educational discussion, only. Design is based on one individuals' memories, culture, and traditions.

UTTC's Food System Calendars are designed around the "moons" of a year. Many tribes followed the moons to time annual food gathering, preserving, storing, and sharing traditions. The pictures in the center of the Food System Calendars depict the spiritual food that were honored as important for survival.
