Introduction to the Botanical Knowledge and Know-How of First Peoples in Québec

Accompanied by a First Nations Garden interpreter, explore the various ecosystems inhabited by the 11 First Nations and Inuit of Québec. Learn more about the plants that are culturally significant for these peoples, their uses and their functions, from yesterday to today. Discover their know-how through an exhibition of crafts and everyday objects.

This activity, presented as a guided tour following the paths of the First Nations Garden, provides an introduction to the plant-related knowledge and know-how that the First Nations and Inuit have developed and passed down through the years. It is also an opportunity to learn and talk about the First Peoples of Québec in a one-of-a-kind setting.
