The August Full Moon was called the Corn Moon, Barley Moon or Grain Moon by ancient peoples. August is a time for harvesting. Each culture had its staple grain, so that grain was celebrated as a symbol of life. As we hike through CCSP on the evening of the Grain Moon, we took a look at some of the plants the native people would have harvested at this time of year, and tasted cherries, currants, poppy seed and chia seed.
