WALLOWA â Biscuit root is blooming in the Nez Perce Wallowa Homeland, setting the stage for a three-part online lecture series celebrating Native First Foods. The second lecture will be presented virtually on April 16 at 1 p.m. by Linda Sampson, a teacher and gatherer who will take participants through the seasons of "A Gatherer's Year." Registration for the series is required so attendees can be sent a link to the first lecture, a prequel presentation by Wenix Red Elk of the CTUIR Department of Natural Resources. A third session on May 7 at 1 p.m will feature Brosnan Spencer and Bobby Fossek presenting "Caretakers of the Land."
