The Sandown Centre is located on the traditional lands of the SENĆOŦEN speaking W̱S͸ḴEM (Tseycum) peoples of the W̱SÁNEĆ First Nations. We recognize, with deep humility and respect, the people who stewarded these lands since time immemorial and the devastation caused by colonization.
​
Regenerative Agriculture draws from the wisdom and environmental connection that is found in Indigenous food systems throughout history and the globe. During colonization, farming as we know it, was used to remove Indigenous people from their ancestral lands and disrupt their traditional foodways, causing widespread suffering and loss of life. Integral to regenerative agriculture is food sovereignty, equity, justice, environmental conservation, and the knowledge that we must care for the earth to care for ourselves. We are committed to working in the spirit of these ideals, and strive towards tangible reconciliation work through land restoration, stewardship, education, food and relationship.
