This year’s 22nd annual Symposium will take place online on November 6th and 7th, 2020. Please join us in a celebration of Indigenous plant sovereignty. Discussion will focus on contributing to healthy and sustainable communities in relation to our plant relatives. We invite you to share your knowledge and teachings around medicine, ceremony, communal growing practices, and the cultural relation of plant health to sovereignty and environmental justice.
