Plus get your questions answered live after the talk!\nMarch’s presentation will be on The Swinomish Indian Tribal Community (SITC)  clam garden project with Squi-Qui Joe Williams!\n																														\n \nAbout the presentation: Clam gardens are intertidal features modified by Northwest Coastal Indigenous people to enhance clam habitat for optimal shellfish production. The Swinomish Indian Tribal Community (SITC) recently initiated a clam garden project to address declining clam populations and community concerns regarding climate change and ocean acidification. This effort will integrate traditional ecological knowledge into contemporary resource management and climate adaptation strategies, encourage local food security and sovereignty, and promote sustainable seafood production. This presentation will discuss clam gardening and SITC’s work to revive the ancient practice into modern day use.\nAbout the speaker: Squi-Qui Joe Williams is a Swinomish tribal member, lifelong fisherman, and the Shellfish Community Liaison for the Swinomish Fisheries Department.\n \n			\n
