A big thank you to Tyra Crosschild and Jacie Alook for putting this together! 
Keep an eye on IRT7 socials for more team-building hangouts — open to youth ages 16-30 and always a good time! 
Tessa Wolfleg Shared 
: “I really enjoyed yesterday and I’m really thankful for those who came out to learn about the knowledge that I did share. I hope that people learned from what I shared. And you know, this is something that I’m still learning and perfecting it. I don’t hold all the knowledge on these things, but I’m grateful to share this knowledge with the community when I’m able to and it’s such a great honor to do and to also do this for like my community and stuff. I think we’re at a time where knowledge like this should be shared amongst our people and passed down whatever way that it can be. And yeah, I’m so grateful for the opportunity. I am grateful for everyone that came out and you know, I really hope that everyone learned something from this walk, even if it was just to find a new place to walk but yeah, um, overall thankful for this opportunity.”
Winter-Rose Asham Shared : “I really enjoyed the walk we did and what we learned from Tessa. I think it’s important that we have group hangouts like this to reconnect with nature and to learn more about our traditional uses for plants and medicines. I learned a lot from Tessa’s knowledge and I am very grateful that I was able to experience it.”
