Description: 

Today the Forest Service and the Tulalip Tribes are working together to co-steward important cultural resources under the initiative known as the Huckleberry Enhancement Project. The partnership is part of the 10-year co-stewardship plan established in 2016 between the Forest Service and the Tulalip to restore and enhance the swədaʔx̌ali area. The Project draws upon Article 5 of the 1855 Treaty of Point Elliott, which protects the Tulalip’s right to fish, hunt, and gather in unclaimed lands.
