Understanding the Land: Honouring Gifts from Mother Earth.
Join us for a somatic learning experience that deepens our connection to the land through creativity, reflection, and exploration of self. We will explore ways to honour those who came before us and whose territories we now reside in, by delving into the land’s rich history and nurturing our relationship with the land as responsible Métis harvesters.
