Finding Fiddleheads

Bethelites and their guests gathered together to go on an ethnobotany outing to forage for fiddlehead ferns on BIA Road. The second annual Finding Fiddleheads walk was sponsored by the Kuskokwim Consortium Library last Tuesday and was led by Carey Atchak and family. Foragers of all ages participated in the family-friendly event to gather the bright fresh greens. The delicious ferns can be sautéed like veggies or boiled and made into some tasty akutaq. photo by Theresa Quiner
