🧡 September 30 is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
Today is a time to reflect on the history of the land where we live and work, and consider what reconciliation asks of each of us.
Our work takes place on the unceded territory of the K’ómoks First Nation. We recognize our responsibility to learn about and honour the history, culture, and ongoing presence of the K’ómoks people, and to contribute meaningfully to the work of reconciliation.
As an organization grounded in food security, we are committed to walking a path of reconciliation through actions such as:
🌱 Supporting Indigenous food sovereignty initiatives
🤝 Building respectful relationships with K’ómoks First Nation, Indigenous Education and other Indigenous-led groups
📚 Educating ourselves and our community about the impacts of colonization on food, culture, and health
🌍 Working toward a future where food systems are just, inclusive and rooted in Indigenous leadership
We know reconciliation is ongoing work. We are committed to listening, learning, building relationships, and taking meaningful action throughout the year.
