Bannock, a baking-powder bread, has been a staple food for people living in the bush for as long as the ingredients have been available - no domestic grains are indigenous to northern Saskatchewan.

A set of 102 photos of Mary Eninew showing the making of birch syrup. In the spring when the sap begins to rise it is time to make birch syrup.
