Acknowledgement

Located in amiskwaciy-wâskahikan (aka Edmonton). This area is the traditional territory for many First Nations communities including the Cree, Saulteaux, Nakota, Dene, Sioux, Blackfoot and the Metis Peoples.

The presence of settlers (non-indigenous peoples who live on these lands) is not neutral; it has had and continues to have devastating impacts on many aspects of life for Indigenous peoples. Many of our practices, including the seeds we plant, the ways we educate, and our methods of growing food came to these lands through the ongoing process of colonialism. Settler colonialism has suppressed local well-being and food systems.

Hold this understanding in your interactions and engagements with this land and its people. There is important work being done by many nations and allies to ensure the continued thriving of traditional food systems, communities, and knowledge systems. Those of us who are settlers need to recognize that our knowledge and way of doing things may not be the priority as we work towards food security for everyone.

Canada plant hardiness/climate zones range from from 0 (harshest) to 8 (mildest). "Edmonton" is in zone 3b.
