Love the Land Adventures in Land Based Learning and Ethnoecology is a walking tour in the salnachiya (forest) ofx wesam-stelkaya (Roberts Creek), the shared homeland of the Shishalh and Sḵwx̱wú7mesh peoples. This story starts with an introduction to these two potlatch tribes and their lands, waters and ways of living as an ecologically sustainable society. We recognize that these people of the land have worked together in stewardship and management by collaborating and working by effective protocols for thousands of years. We will consider how this beautiful landscape faces climate change and loss of biodiversity and the effects of excessive/extractive harvesting and pollution. As a generation we are in a unique position and opportunity to come together as a community, both indigenous and settler, to experience, inquire and learn the ethnoecology, of the place we call home. Welcome to Love the Land Adventures in Land Based Learning and Ethnoecology and the ways we can work together to continue good stewardship practices.
