The serviceberry panel was defaced. The text is: "Serviceberry is a very important fruit for the Plateau peoples. The berries may be taken fresh in late summer, cooked as preserves, or dried for winter use. The Okanagan-Colville people used the berries to make pies, puddings, and "Indian ice cream." >>>>>>>> |
| On
April 11, 1806, William Clark described the blooming landscape that
included Serviceberry near Bonneville Dam on the Columbia River: 'vegetation
is rapidly progressing. Sarvis berry, Sackacommis [kinnikinnick] and
the large leafed ash [big-leaf maple] in blume.'" - End of panel. These are examples of native plants and informative panels along the Land Bridge and Interpretive Trail Confluence Project at Fort Vancouver. Signs on I-5 and WA HWY 14, in Vanvouver, direct visitors to the fort and Confluence Project. |
