Agriculture of the Hidatsa Indians: An Indian Interpretation
1839?-1932 Waheenee and others
A Hidatsa woman remembered exactly how her people grew corn, beans, and squash along the Missouri. Told in her own voice as Waheenee, this account walks from tradition through beginning a garden to the full cycle of Native agriculture. A rare firsthand record of an Indigenous farming system in its own words. Learn the garden knowledge carried down through generations of Hidatsa hands.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
