Ceremonial Fire, Land and Cultural Resource Restoration

Fire, water, sun, and earth are all inter-related and intertwined, therefore are dependent upon each other. When fire is put upon the land, the cultural resources are rejuvenated, new life, and medicines that are essential to all species health are returned. The Honorable Ron W. Goode, Tribal Chairman of the North Fork Mono Tribe, will talk about his work as teacher, author and ethnobotanist to enhance the ecological environment, watersheds, and cultural resources of the forests, parks and tribal lands, and to deepen the understanding of the relationship between human, animals, plants, and the elements.
