Traditional Ecological Knowledge of Pollinators

Harvest of All First Nations (HAFN), an Indigenous-led grassroots organization committed to land rematriation and amplifying BIPOC voices, is proud to collaborate with Butterfly Pavilion for a unique and immersive cultural experience. 

Join us for an inspiring workshop featuring our community’s esteemed Fancy Shawl Dancer, Joselyn Running Wolf, accompanied by Chasing Hawk and the renowned drum group, Standing Bear. The Fancy Shawl Dance is deeply respected in Indigenous communities, as its graceful movements mirror the spirit of the butterfly, symbolizing transformation and renewal. 

What to Expect: 

• Cultural Powwow Dance Presentation: Witness the beauty and significance of the Fancy Shawl Dance, brought to life by Joselyn Running Wolf, whose performance embodies the heartbeat and flutter of the butterfly. 

• Educational Workshop: Learn about the critical role of pollinators and the importance of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) from our Indigenous Relations Consultants. This session includes an informative on-the-ground tour of our garden, where the connection between culture and nature is beautifully intertwined. 

This event offers a rare opportunity to experience the rich traditions of Indigenous cultures while deepening your understanding of ecological stewardship.
