Joshua Creek Heritage Art Centre – Introduction, Seedling Sale

This year, the Heritage Centre will be hosting its first ever seedling sale! Two dates are scheduled, May 15 and May 22, for a small sale of vegetable seedlings and native plants, with all proceeds going to support the many activities at the Centre. Please spread the word to attend if possible! I will personally be running the event and would love to get further connected with the horticultural and environmental communities around the area.

The seedling sales will be held from 9am to 12pm on May 15 and 22nd.

As a community, we have the responsibility to honour, care for and respect all the Creation gives to provide us with life. This includes the land, water, air, fire, animals, plants and our ancestors.

The Anishinabek Peoples have utilized this land for millennia and we would like to acknowledge their direct descendants, the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, as the rightful caretakers and titleholders of this land upon which we live, work and conduct ourselves. We acknowledge our treaty relationship and responsibilities to both the land and these original peoples.

We also recognize that this land is rich in pre-contact history and customs, which includes the Anishinabek and Haudenosaunee and since European contact, has and continues to become home for Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. And it is in the spirit and intent of the Dish With One Spoon, wampum agreement whereby we will collectively care for and respect the land, water, animals and each other in the interests of peace and friendship and for the benefit of not only ourselves but of our future descendants.  

The HEN Office resides on Treaty 22, Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. For more information on Treaty 22 go to: http://mncfn.ca/treaty2223/
