SUMMARY:Stewardship Series: Reclaiming our Relationship with our Plant Kin through acts of reciprocity and respect
DESCRIPTION:Walk title: Reclaiming our Relationship with our Plant Kin through acts of reciprocity and respect \n\n\n\nLocation: Chenchenstway food forest\, Oxford Park\, 2050 Wall Street\, Vancouver. \n\n\n\nRegister: fill in our registration form here \n\n\n\nEvent description: \n\n\n\nYou are invited to walk the garden of Chenchenstway (a food forest that was planted 4 years ago) with Metis herbalist\, LoriAnn Bird. LoriAnn is a Metis herbalist\, mother\, and now author of her first book\, Revered Roots Ancestral Teachings and Wisdom of Wild\, Edible and Medicinal Plants.  Together\, we will explore our true nature as guardians who contribute and receive gifts of abundance from our Living World.  LoriAnn will share samples to engage our senses to help anchor knowledge that is to be passed on.  LoriAnn will have copies of her book available to purchase at the event for $30 (cash or e-transfer). \n\n\n\nBio: LoriAnn Bird is an Indigenous Metis Herbalist\, author\, mother\, and educator\, with a deep knowledge of medicinal and edible plants that grow in the most common and everyday places around us. \n\n\n\nLoriAnn is available for educational plant walks and presentations in your community. To learn more about LoriAnn\, you can check out her website here. \n\n\n\nBy observing and listening to our immediate surroundings\, we rediscover our relationship with the natural world. LoriAnn shares the teachings of reciprocity from the Rooted Nations-those plants and living beings who offer their lives as sustenance\, medicine\, and guidance to us and many other diverse relatives (species).  \n\n\n\nAt a time when our connection to the land continues to grow more fragile\, LoriAnn invites us to reconnect with the Earth & reclaim our shared history with it. She encourages us to remember the wisdom of our ancestors\, who\, for thousands of years\, were nourished by the lands & waters through a reciprocal relationship caring deeply for their gifts for the benefit of both present and future generations. Let us be good ancestors.   \n\n\n\nAbout the Stewardship Series: \n\n\n\nThis event is part of the Stewardship Series organized in a partnership between Stanley Park Ecology Society & Invasive Species Council of Metro Vancouver. \n\n\n\nStanley Park Ecology and the Invasive Species Council of Metro Vancouver rely on grant funding and donations to make educational events like this possible.
