All the residents of Kongiganak practice a traditional subsistence lifestyle. That means that every season brings different resources for people to find and bring home.
Fall:
* When school starts, villagers are still berry picking every day, mostly for blueberries, salmonberries, and black berries. After the first frost cranberries will also be picked.
* Moose hunting and bird hunting are also very prevalent in the fall season.
* Silver salmon are still around in the fall and tom cods are also caught
Winter:
* This season there is a lot of tom cod fishing and pike fishing.
* Moose and caribou hunting happens around this time as well.
Spring:
* In spring there is a return of bird hunting and also egg hunting. Residents are also exploring the tundra for different greens to gather (around the small lakes)
Summer:
* Fishing is the key activity in the summer. Salmon fishing and drying takes up a lot of the time.
* Berry picking also starts as early as June.
** Walrus and Seal hunting happen all year long.
