We will learn how Menominee agriculture has been rediscovered in the forests of our region through the observations of forester and knowledge keeper Jeff Grignon (Paemapameh) and through years of effort by the Menominee Historic Preservation Department. Then, we will explore what archeologists, anthropologists, and agronomists have to tell us about this important part of the Menominee economy over the centuries.
Speakers: Jacob Grignon (Cultural Resource Protection Officer, Menominee Historic Preservation) and Frank Kutka (Sustainable Agriculture Faculty, College of Menominee Nation)
