McMaster University recognizes that the University and surrounding Hamilton area, including their nature spaces, are situated on traditional territories shared between the Haudenosaunee confederacy and Anishnaabe nations. These lands are protected by the Dish with One Spoon Wampum belt. The wampum uses the symbolism of a dish to represent the territory, and one spoon to represent that the people are to share the resources of the land and only take what they need.

Are you passionate about environmental stewardship and community involvement? Nature at McMaster invites you to a special day dedicated to the restoration of ecologically significant local areas. Together with landowners and like-minded volunteers, we restore the lower Ancaster Creek area near the Forest Glen Condominiums by removing invasives and planting native trees and shrubs.
