I had one of those memorable #VancouverIsland days recently. A gathering of friends on the beach, salmon cooked around the fire, oysters (tluqw tluqw) picked off the beach and steamed around the fire, clams (s’aqw) steamed under the sand. Veggies were steamed nettles and maple flowers picked from nearby trees. Being fed by the land with food gathered by friends and cooked in traditional ways on the beach. #pnw #indigenous

@FtRupertTed Interesting, did not know you can eat maple blossoms, and they sure are out now.

@GPJohnston That was new to me, too. They taste a bit like broccoli.

@FtRupertTed I didn't know you can eat them either. Were they steamed too or eaten raw? Sounds like a delicious meal altogether.

@CatherineBabault @GPJohnston We ate them raw. I went home and pick some from the tree by the house and added them to my salad at dinner. Forgot to check for small bugs but didn’t notice any during the meal:).
