A forester from the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians will talk about the tribe’s efforts to make traditional gathering more accessible for tribal members during a free 30-minute webinar at 1 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 16.
Tommy Cabe, tribal forest resource liaison for the tribe, will discuss how the EBCI is collaborating with the U.S. Forest Service and the National Park Service to study traditional gathering practices and their impact on culturally significant plants, such as ramps and sochan. The effort aims to demonstrate the low impact traditional gathering methods have on plant populations and, once proven, to allow such methods on traditional lands and change policy on how some plants are gathered.
Cabe, a tribal member from the Birdtown community, is a senior employee in the EBCI’s Agriculture and Natural Resources Department and has been involved with environmental projects on tribal lands for the past two decades.
