Wigwam Construction Interpretation Program
The project will involve the construction of a Mi'kmaq Wigwam at Merrymakedge area of Kejimkujik National Park and National Historic Site between July and September, as part of an experiential interpretation activity with visitors, over two sessions per week. The intention is to build a durable structure that can be used in the future. Materials to be used in the construction of the Wigwam will include: Speckled alder (~30 stems), Paper birch (8 to 10 mature trees, harvested in spring), Spruce roots for stitching (~30m), Rocks (river cobbles) for fireplace hearths. The Wigwam will have an oval footprint (~5m x 6m). The footprint will need to be excavated ~0.3m below grade, preferably with a compact excavator. Individual holes will be hand-dug for each Alder stem. A storage shed will be temporarily moved to the site for the duration of construction for the storage of tools.
