Each gathering will include a land-based learning activity, such as self-guided medicine picking, wild rice harvesting, or setting a trap line. Each gathering would also be supplemented by a language or storytelling component that builds on the land-based learning activity and speaks to the history of the activity and season. The T3YEC will host each gathering in collaboration with Treaty #3 Elders, Knowledge Keepers, and those who continue to practice the traditional ways of life.
