Those camas fields were cultivated, too. I was just watching a video about restoring native prairies in Washington and they had some ironic trouble because they eventually realized that the best and fastest way to spread and maintain the camas was to dig it up regularly-- the way people used to when harvesting it. It went on for so long the plants are adapted to it. But in the protected area this project was working in, it's ILLEGAL to harvest anything. So they ask the local tribes to come in and exercise their right to do it.
