  stories about the plants that grow on the mountain and learn about the st
 rong connection between native people and local flora. The forest on Mount
  Royal has been known by humans since prehistoric times. Wood was used for
  construction and tools\, many plants were collected for food and others f
 or medicinal uses. For example\, white cedar bark from the mountain was pr
 epared by the St. Lawrence Iroquoians and provided to early newcomers as a
  tonic against scurvy. This event starts with brief presentation in the Mu
 seum\, continues with walk to the Hochelaga monument and finishes with tra
 ditional Huron-Wendat ceremony and strawberry refreshment near the Kondiar
 onk White Pine on Mount Royal's summit behind the Belvedere. Part of this 
 presentation will be led by Darrell Thompson\, a traditional Mohawk medici
 ne man. The complete talk and walk is two hours. Please bring your own sna
