Even 150 Years Later, Lush Forest Gardens Showcase The Value of Native Stewardship
25 APRIL 2021
The way humans manage the environment doesn't have to be destructive. In the western corner of Canada, ecologists have shown forests once tended by First Nations people are healthier and more resilient – even now, 150 years after these ancient custodians were forcibly displaced by colonial settlers. 
 
The study is among the first to compare the Indigenous gardening practices of North America with modern-day land management, and the findings are stark.
In forests touched by recent human activity, researchers found a wood dominated by conifers and hemlocks. Whereas in the forest gardens of the Ts'msyen and Coast Salish peoples, the team found a diversity of native fruit and nut trees, including crabapple, hazelnut, cranberry, wild plum, and wild cherries.
