About Ravenvision Orchid Supply
Passion for orchids, photography, and sharing knowledge with fellow growers
Land Acknowledgement
Ravenvision is located on territory governed by the Huron Tract Treaty of 1827, an agreement made between eighteen Anishnaabek chiefs and the Canada Company, an agency of the British crown. This land is traditional hunting and fishing grounds, shared and cared for by the Anishnaabe, the Haudenosaunee, the Algonquin, and the Neutrals. We are grateful for the privilege of living, working, and gathering as uninvited guests on this land, and we honour and celebrate its original caretakers, acknowledged and unacknowledged, recorded and unrecorded.
Ravenvision est situé sur un territoire régi par le Huron Tract Treaty de 1827, un accord conclu entre dix-huit chefs Anishnaabek et la Canada Company, une agence de la couronne britannique. Ce territoire est un lieu de chasse et de pêche traditionnel, partagé et entretenu par les Anishnaabe, les Haudenosaunee, les Algonquins et les Neutres. Nous sommes reconnaissants pour le privilège de vivre, de travailler et de nous réunir en tant qu'hôtes non invités sur cette terre, et nous honorons et célébrons ses gardiens originaux, qu'ils soient reconnus ou non, attestés ou non.
