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.
Join Peter Langballe for a walk where Grindstone Creek meets Hamilton Harbour.
Meet at the free public parking lot near the home at 1260 Spring Gardens Road. This lot is beside the railroad tracks just off Plains Road and across the road from the Hauser Furniture store.
