Land Acknowledgement

We acknowledge that the place we call “Vermont”, in which we gather, live, and work, is the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Abénaki and Mohican people. We honor and respect the enduring relationship that exists between our Indigenous friends, their land, and the natural world.

We are grateful for the opportunity to work in this place and strive to be mindful stewards of the land in partnership with Vermont’s Indigenous population, including Abénaki, Mohican, and others with Indigenous heritage who call Vermont home. We commit to fostering respectful relationships and to supporting the preservation of Indigenous cultures, traditions, and land stewardship practices.

We pledge to continue learning from and with our Indigenous friends, colleagues, partners, and organizations to promote a future where their voices are respected and upheld.
