Tribal members harvested, shared, and even released lamprey near spawning grounds, while elders taught traditional preparation methods and attendees got hands-on with these nutrient-rich, jawless wonders. The event also spotlighted a major conservation push to “rewild” Willamette Falls, aiming to restore the land and reconnect Indigenous communities with this sacred river site.
