Indigenous Conversations: Exploring Ancestral Harvesting Practices with Kim Wheatley
Join Kim Wheatley, Anishinaabe Cultural Consultant, in honoring the process of ancestral harvesting practices through images, stories and traditional teachings based on Anishinaabe Ways of Knowing. She will share experiences based on the 1 year immersion project she has created and is currently immersed within while expanding on relationships to the lands and waters she calls home!
Traditional Anishinaabe Grandmother Kim Wheatley is Turtle and Bear Clan from Shawanaga First Nation Reserve who carries the Spirit Name Shkoden Neegaan Waawaaskonen (Head or Leader of the Fireflower). She is a multi award winning speaker and published author who has presented locally, nationally and internationally, while also having appeared on television, radio, in books and in many news articles.
Kim currently provides Indigenous consultations, continues to organize events, writes for a local newspaper and is working on a new book.
We acknowledge that the land on which we meet today is part of the Treaty Lands and Territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit.
We recognize the importance of this land and pay our respects to the Anishinaabe and other First Nations, Métis and Inuit past, present and future.
Heritage Mississauga would like to thank The Ontario Trillium Foundation’s Resilient Communities Fund for their financial support to help us bring Indigenous Conversations to a wider community through this webinar series.
