The Garden is located on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded lands of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh-ulh Temíx̱w (Squamish) and səl̓ilwətaɁɬ təməxʷ (Tsleil-Waututh) nations. As an organization whose mandate is the promotion of cultural sharing and education, we are grateful to have the opportunity to work in this territory, and recognize the continuous need to listen and learn from those who have, and continue to, call Vancouver home.
