AKWESASNE’S SECOND ANNUAL MEDICINE GATHERING SYMPOSIUM

This October 12-13, step into a world of healing and community at the Mohawk Nation Longhouse in Akwesasne! Onkwe invites you to immerse yourself in two days filled with medicine-making workshops, captivating storytelling, and herbal consultations. Connect with nature and each other as you trade plants and seeds, enjoy delicious free food, and participate in activities like sweetgrass braiding and making natural sprays.

 

Bring your homemade treasures to swap — whether they’re hunted, foraged, farmed, or crafted, it’s all about sharing and celebrating our skills. Remember, cash won’t be needed — just your creativity and spirit of barter!

 

The symposium is proudly sponsored by the MCA Department of Community & Social Services, United South & Eastern Tribes, and the Natural Resources Conservation Service. Let’s gather, grow, and share in this beautiful experience together! 🌿
