Furuseth presented the demonstration Thursday evening at the Sustainability Office at Bemidji State University. The class was one of three traditional skills workshops offered at BSU this fall. The first workshop was on natural dyes, and the December workshop will be on bread making. Pioneer Photo/Monte Draper
