A berry happy #FoodlandsFriday! 🍓 Today we are highlighting the t̕qwəməɬp / Tqwémelhp (Thimbleberry bush)*, one of the species planted at the Foodlands corridor on the sc̓e:ɬxʷəy̓əm (Salmon River). These shrubs are most recognized for the red t̕qʷəm / T`qwəm berries that grow in the summer. t̕qwəməɬp / Tqwémelhp are great for riparian restoration as they provide food and shelter for wildlife, and their root system helps stabilize stream banks and reduce soil erosion. 🌱
