How we came to be

The Potlatch or "Give Away" is a ceremonial, gift-giving feast practiced by Indigenous peoples of the north country (such as the, Tlingit, Anishinabeg and Kwakwaka'wakw) to mark major life events, celebrate, and redistribute wealth. Derived from a Chinook word meaning "to give" the ceremony involves feasting, dancing, and the giving of gifts.

At Potlatch, cooking and sharing meals together is one of our favorite things. We hope to keep the tradition alive by helping you share your trail meals with friends in the backcountry.
