We live, explore, teach, and conduct soil science research on Treaty 6 Territory, the traditional lands of the Nêhiyawak (Plains Cree), Nahkawininiwak (Salteaux), Nakota (Assiniboine), and Dakota (Sioux) peoples, and the Homeland of the Métis. This place carries the history of the forced removal of Indigenous culture and peoples who walked here thousands of years before us. Soil is often described as the memory of the land, holding stories from the past and responding to our actions today. We commit to reconciliation by connecting with Indigenous stories and perspectives of this history as well as by respecting the teachings from the land. This knowledge can help guide us in our work as stewards of the land for future generations.
