Blackberries are one of many wild foods found in the Sault region. Photo via pixabay.

If you could step back in time, you would see this neighbourhood spring to life with fields, marshes, and thick forests. In the past this was a great place for people to pick berries.

The homes, roads, and parks were built only recently in this region’s history. In fact, Indigenous people lived and harvested food here before the pyramids were built in ancient Egypt! Their descendants still live, work, and play in the Sault area.
