WOLF WILLOW CLASS

Silverberries or wolf-willow berries are traditionally gathered to make beautiful natural rosaries by the Metis people.

These mealy, sparkly berries can be used to bead clothing or make jewelry and regalia. We can even make a traditional dessert from the silverberry bush – a delicious & unique confection known as ‘Metis ice cream’.

Learning to clean and pierce the beads from a Metis herbalist, make your own rosary, prayer beads or necklace to wear with pride.


***Due to limited class space during Métis week, we kindly ask that District citizens sign up for only one of the in-person classes offered to allow for as many people as possible to participate. (ie. Beading OR Medicinal Tea Teachings OR Wolf Willow Rosary class).***

Registration opens Nov 12, 2025.
