Title: Wabanaki Traditions in bold; background image of birch bark canoes in lake
Long before Europeans arrived, Wabanaki people hunted, fished, gathered berries, and harvested clams on what we now call Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park. For generations Wabanaki craftspeople sold handmade ash and sweet-grass baskets to weather tourists and guided summer residents in birch bark canoes around Frenchman Bay. As their ancestors did for thousands of year, Wabanaki people today continue their unique and enduring relationship with this land through tribal gatherings and cultural traditions.
