Land Acknowledgement
Garden of Venus respectfully acknowledges that our work as unwelcome guests is conducted on the traditional territory of the Lower Skagit, Swinomish, Suqamish, and Snohomish tribes which was named Whidbey by colonial settlers in 1792. We honor Tscha-kole-chy, its pre-colonial history, and the Indigenous People upon whose traditional lands we occupy. We encourage you to learn about the Native tribal roots of the land you occupy.
Our Commitment
We aim to honor the original caretakers of this land by preserving and restoring the natural ecosystem we live in, and educating others about the role indigenous communities have played in land stewardship since time immemorial. Using native and edible plants, minimizing our carbon footprint, and paying Real Rent to the Duwamish Tribal Nation are all ways we uphold our commitment.
