Known as ca̓ʔinwa to Nuu-chah-nulth people, the gooseneck barnacle is a traditional delicacy that grows on the exposed coast of Vancouver Island

Nuu-chah-nulth harvesters choose our barnacles carefully, removing them from surrounding marine life and leaving the mussel beds beneath.

Nuu-chah-nulth people have a word for the way everything is interconnected: hišukiš c̓awak (literally, everything is one). We invite you to share in the experience.
