Eliza Terbasket

Syilx Okanagan Nation member Eliza Terbasket was born and raised in the Similkameen Valley. She learned at a very young age the importance of gathering food for the winter as she witnessed her great-grandmother bring in stacks and stacks of dried salmon from trading her tanned deer hides (buckskin).  Eliza’s family always had a large garden and fruit trees and canning has always been a regular event during summer and fall harvests. She continues some of these practices but mainly the canning processes of fruit and salmon.
