Can’t Help the Forest without Trees

Planting trees is a way to think long term, provide for your neighbors, and steward for those 7 generations. It can also be a helpful action following the use of ishkode (fire) or removal of non-native plants. Planting native trees, shrubs, and other herbaceous plants ensures access to food and medicine both for ourselves and the relatives around us. This Ziigwan (spring), 1854 Treaty Authority has a selection of seedlings available for Grand Portage and Bois Forte band members to order.
