*All participants are encouraged to contribute to pot-luck & to bring their feast kit. Women, please remember to honour Mother Earth by wearing a long skirt.
*Please note: our Feasts are how we honour the Spirits of our Ancestors and our Bundles (the tools we work with), rather than the all-you-can-eat buffet of Western Society. Our teachings tell us to include meat/fish from our lands, berries, corn, and wild rice — the food that grows on water that sustained our people on the migration from the East. So bring as much food as you can eat: we’ll all share, and hopefully, we will be able to eat it all; whatever remains must be given to the land.
