Create a special pinch pot clay canoe that will make the teachings all come together.
Tanya Gluvakov from Roots and Raven will guide us.
Tanya Gluvakov is the founder of Roots and Raven, a botanical body care brand that focuses on Indigenous medicines, connecting to land and Indigenous medicine garden projects. She is a mixed nation Mohawk woman with roots and family from Six Nations. Her motivation to teach, create and help with Indigenous medicine resurgence projects comes from her connection to her grandmother Betty, who taught her she could stand up and do hard things.
