I would like to acknowledge the traditional keepers of the land on which our farm is located; Atikameksheng Anishnawbek and all other members of the Robinson-Huron treaty. I am deeply inspired by the practices and traditional ways of knowing of Indigenous people.
I am honored to try and continue their legacy of forming a reciprocal relationship with the land and mother earth as a whole. I will continue to strive to leave the land in better condition than when I acquired it so it can continue to give back for generations to come.
I hope that all our customers and contacts will adopt a spirit of reconciliation in all their gardening and landscaping practices and each do their part to heal the land and also heal relationships with all Indigenous peoples.
I would like to thank Manidoo Bineshiinh for her assistance in preparing this acknowledgment and happy to support her work at Manidoo Bineshii Dreams (MBD) a collective arts and food sovereignty space based in Atikameksheng Anishnawbek. I encourage everyone to learn more and help support this space.
