The research focuses on people from Artvin who migrated to Bursa. The cultural activities of residents of Artvin who live in Bursa observed and interviews were conducted. According to 2018 TÜİK data, Bursa has the highest population of people living outside Artvin who continue to be registered in the province of Artvin. The population of Artvin is concentrated in certain districts in the province, including Yıldırım, Gürsu, Osmangazi, and Kestel. Having lived rural lives with close interaction with nature, this population actively practices its rural knowledge and experience in areas such as housing, food production, environmental use, and social relations.
