In spring, on the traditional and treaty lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit, young children, Anishinaabe storytellers and educators walk together with Aki (Land) and Nibi (Water).
I’m a researcher and professor of early childhood and someone of French-Canadian and Hungarian descent living as a guest in Tkaronto/Toronto. I’m among the educators exploring children’s land-based learning in a children’s forest nature program in the Humber Arboretum, in the west Humber River Valley in the northwest part of Toronto.
