The Abbotsford library has a new display for the summer of 2018: Indigenous Foodways: the story so far from UFV Library’s Special Collections. Highlighting material from the Newman Western Canadian Cookbook Collection as well as a number of titles from the Heritage Collection, viewers can get a sense of how food practices and knowledge were communicated over the last 100 years. There are examples of the colonial perspective on First Nations foodways as well as titles exploring the cultural and nutritional contribution of traditional foods, and finally, some cookbooks from the Newman Collection sharing recipes and stories.Abbotsford campus library (G building)
