SMOKE ON THE PLATEAU

is not only catering, it’s a living enactment of sqilx’w food governance, where every dish carries the teachings of our Four Food Chiefs, skimxist (Black Bear), spitlem (Bitterroot), siya (Saskatoon), and ntytyix (Salmon). We don't engage with our Four Food Chiefs as an ingredient; they’re our leaders, our guides, and our oldest agreements with the land.
