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.
In celebration of Pollinator Week (June 19 – 25, 2023) Bee Sweet Nature Co will be hosting their 3rd annual pollinator festival on June 17, 2023.
HNC will be there along with Reep Green, Pollination Guelph, Cambridge Rivers Edge Gardeners, ReForest London, and more to chat about native plant gardening and creating positive environmental impacts. Enjoy a free educational day, tour the nursery, talk to experts, and maybe buy a few native trees, shrubs, and wildflowers to take home.
