Land-Based Learning

“Land-based learning is education, community and skills building or training that takes place outdoors in particular places of local significance, often on traditional Indigenous territories. Teachings can include land-based language learning, harvesting, hunting, trapping, fishing, medicine gathering, bush survival skills, and traditional land-based scientific knowledge and culture and often involves Elders and Knowledge Keepers as teachers. The importance of building relationships and the bonding that occur on the land is emphasized both with participants and educators as well as relationships with non-human relations.” ~

The Mishkodeh, is a place to pass on knowledge that has been collected and carried on by each generation for thousands of years.  We all have a responsibility to ensure that this knowledge continues to be shared for generations to come.
