| We have to have to put our thoughts together, our power together to save our planet here. We’ve only got one air, one water, one Mother Earth” Corbin Harney, Western Shoshone |
As part of our participation on the NCAI Tribal Forestry
Preservation Strategy committee, we are announcing our new
Green Harvest-Trade Project.
NWP has shown that many of the plants on tribal lands that
are considered "invasive" (non-native species) have many
useful purposes. Rather than poison our land and water by
using herbicides, we could be harvesting out the non-native
plants creating Green jobs and cottage industries. From
biomass fuel to herbal remedies, there are many options to
consider.
The second part of this project is to support Tribal land
preservation laws prohibiting wildcrafting of native plants
and roots by non tribal members.

It's not just a job. When you are working a Green job you are
preserving our world. You are making a way for your
grandchildren. You are working with water, fire, wind, sun,
earth or thunder.
We want to make the connection between the old ways and
the new. So, if you are a sundancer you can work with the sun,
if you carry or pour water you can have a job preserving it's
cleanliness, if you tend fire at lodge, maybe working on a
hotshot crew is the career for you...click on the source images
above for more information.
We are reinstating our newsletter soon..thank you for your patience!
