This year we have teamed up with a Mohawk/Odawa family living in the official Capital of Sweetgrass on Turtle Island, Walpole Island. Anyone who know, knows that the best Sweetgrass comes from Walpole. (please don’t yell at me for saying that..lol).
Sweetgrass is one of the most important Traditional Medicines. We are very picky about where we get our sweetgrass. Some growths of sweetgrass are in crisis because of over picking or harvesting by pulling out the root. We are working with a family who harvest sweetgrass, with ceremony and pluck the grass without pulling the root.
(Price is per Braid)

Here is the story shared by our friend.
Sweetgrass – a kindness medicine… has a sweet gentle aroma when we light it… 21 strands to make a braid… the first 7 strands represent those 7 generations behind us… our parents, grandparents… 7 generations behind us.. who we are and what we are is because of them… the next seven represent the 7 sacred teachings… love, respect, honesty, courage, wisdom, truth, and humility… the old people tell us how simple, powerful and beautiful the teachings are… love- a very simple teaching… respect- a powerful teaching… humility- a beautiful teaching… when we truly understand the teaching of humility… that I am not any better then anyone else and the last 7 strands… those 7 generation in front of us… our children, grandchildren… those children yet to be born… why are they important… everything we do to Mother Earth will one day affect them.
