I would be interested in this as it is something that is rarely discussed William Threerivers -----Original Message----- From: Alli :) <iamcheroke@gmail.com> To: cherokee <cherokee@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sun, Feb 23, 2014 2:22 am Subject: [Cherokee Circle] Crops We use to have member who liked to share what they knew about crops. So I thought with spring slowly looming near that maybe those who are aware of the Native crops that we had in this country before the Europeans started farming...would share them. I remember some of them, but not all. I started to read (online) a book about Buffalo Bird Woman's Garden she was of the Hidatsa Indian Tribe. She speaks of how she/they did grew their garden with what tools, the veggies they grew, the ones that others grew that they were introduced to from other tribes, like watermelon. Anyway...I was wondering if anyone knows what the Cherokee people raised? ======*====== List archives http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/index?list=cherokee ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to CHEROKEE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
