The Pomo basket-weaving tradition in Northern California has been passed down for generations. But development projects and the encroachment of invasive non-native plant species continue to threaten the survival of the native plants used to make the baskets. Clint McKay and his family are working to preserve these riparian habitats for future generations as they carry on this ancient basketweaving tradition. (Producer-Director: Joshua Dylan Mellars)

At the time of this production, Clint McKay was a recognized member of the Dry Creek Pomo. In 2024, the tribe disenrolled McKay. This complicated and nuanced situation continues to be in dispute.
