Plants can easily be gathered without tools. Seeds, berries and nuts need a basket or other container to collect them in, while roots need to be dug up with some kind of stick.

The Menomini people collected wild rice growing in the rivers; they used a stick to knock off the grains of rice into a canoe.

Lakota women used a digging stick to obtain wild turnips and other edible roots; they called this sharpened stick hunpe or wiwopta.

The Paiute women made large baskets with a strap that passed around their shoulders, as well as large, shallow baskets for gathering seeds, nuts and fruit.
