Oregon Grape – Ktunaxa
Arrow Heights Elementary School has chosen to represent the Oregon Grape!
Known as st’x̌ałqʷ in Nsyilxcən (the language of the Sinixt and Okanagan). Known as nahuk in Ktunaxa (the language of the Ktunaxa), Oregon Grape can be found throughout the Revelstoke area. Although they are better suited to animals than humans, the berries are very tart and taste best after a frost or in preserves. The berries and roots have a variety of medicinal properties and can be used for kidney issues or blood purification. Most commonly, Oregon grape branches are used to create a bright yellow dye that can be applied to a wide range of natural materials.
Responsive Designs for All Device Sizes and Browsers:
Just as Revelstoke’s landscape adapts to the changing seasons, our website adapts seamlessly to all device sizes and browsers. Whether you’re accessing our website on a desktop, tablet, or smartphone, our responsive design ensures that you’ll have a seamless experience.
