It's only once we have a genuine understanding, over time, of a place that we can take thoughtful actions and strive to do some good.⁣ ⁣ **It’s pre-colonial inhabitants – 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝘂𝗻𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗽𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗼𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻– were enriching stewards here, recognizing their place as a part of this ecosystem. I hope to honor them and their contributions, without further participating in their erasure, as I learn and live on their stolen lands as best I can.⁣ ⁣ For anyone looking to learn more about how it’s Indigenous tended “America” and improved its landscapes, I highly recommend reading TendingTheWild and learning about the land you’re occupying at: 𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲-𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱.𝗰𝗮 **⁣
