Indigenous Plant Tradition Workshop

Join Ho-Chunk Nation Bear Clan member and horticulturist Lightning New Rider for an exploration of Indigenous food practices and our relationship with the land. The workshop begins with a presentation inside the Center for Rural History, where Lightning will share teachings on harvesting natural fibers, the connection with Mother Earth, and the traditional uses of medicinal herbs. Together, we’ll consider how food, fiber, and plant medicine are woven into Indigenous lifeways and stewardship of the earth. Be prepared to go outdoors for part of the workshop.

Participants will leave with a deeper understanding of Indigenous plant knowledge and a renewed appreciation for the relationship between land, nourishment, and community. This workshop is best suited for ages 18 and up. Space is limited, registration is required.

Sunday, March 8th 1-2:30 pm
