Centuries ago, local Lunaapee communities made seasonal trips to the habitats where the land had the most to share. In the Hudson Valley indigenous calendar, springtime was spent along the tributary streams of the Hudson River to catch spawning fish. Summer was spent in floodplain villages adjacent to the maize crops. Autumn was a time when people collected nuts and set brush fires to hunt game in the hills. And winter was a time for hunting bears and for storytelling. Join ethnoecologist Justin Wexler of Wild Hudson Valley for one (or all four) seasonal walks to explore the outdoors and learn all about local native people and their relationship with the environment. These walks identify local flora and fauna and their uses in native culture while also explaining the species and the surrounding ecosystems through Hudson Valley native languages and folklore.
