School Garden Guide: E-Resources

This is a resource for teachers to support school gardens, particularly those with a focus on plants found in Lheidli territory

How to Use

This page contains E-Resources from our different video libraries and e-books that might be useful when planning lessons around Indigenous Food and Plant knowledge across Canada. 

Reminder: Remember when using any of these not to imply that they are the practices used locally or that Indigenous groups are a singular entity with the same practices across the whole of Canada or BC.
