This is a forum for my research on indigenous tea plants in the Pacific Northwest. I do not purport to have any entitlement to these knowledges. I am of Ukrainian-European decent. I live in Vancouver BC, Canada [Un-ceded First Nations Territory]. And so I approach this research with the deepest respect for the specific cultures from which these plant knowledges originate.
