For our research and grants, we are required to carry out research dissemination not just in academic journals, but in ways that will reach the general public, so here is my new six-minute aniated/AI video on reclaiming Deep Indigenous histories

FYI

I have a new book coming out next year with my co-editor Ranjan Datta, 12 chapters from Indigenous scholars from around the world and one settler scholar, working with women in Greenland @anthropologie @archeology @TEK

Thank you to this next generation of intelligence caring students

Lived here for eight years and finally got out to this beautiful park on the shore of Lake superior today. It’s only about 25 minutes from my house but I think I’m going every week now at least once.

My cat Saint and Solo enjoy their lazy days while I work at home in my office. Their peaceful calm is a blessing.

Happy Sunday there is a cool wind blowing, but we shall do garden today and eat many fresh organic vegetable vegetables :)

Way too cute

So beautiful and so very lucky to have seen this amazing being

Billie Holiday, one of the greatest jazz and swing singers, died this day 17.7.59 aged 44years. A tragic life, but what a voice. 👍🎙️

Three years ago, I started planting milkweed along the side of my walkway. It’s now about 3 feet wide and 14 feet long. Last year we had a few monarchs visit. Here is a few pictures of this year‘s first monarch butterfly visitor to our milkweed patch..

Enjoying the morning, coffee on my deck and watching my cat Saint navigate our 6 to 10 foot fence. He’s really good at it.

I have gardens in my front yard and backyard. Here’s a few pictures of some beautiful flowers and plants in my backyard.

It was a beautiful sunny gardening day and my front yard is looking good corn, bean squash, tomatoes, beets, carrots, Swiss, chard, strawberries, mint, and thousands of wildflowers

:) happy summer solstice. Have a wonderful day.

Cut my load of vitamins and minerals with dinner wild caught scallops Swiss chard from my garden and a purée of sweet potato carrots and cauliflower was so good. Thought I’d share.

Practice kindness every day it’s free

Growing food for students on campus is a joy many spaces can be put to good use. Algoma University corn circle and raised bed gardens tended by myself, my assistants and the AUSU student body. 31 mounds of corn beans and squash, and numerous raised beds with all kinds of veggies.

My cat saint’s new favourite place to sit lol

It was a beautiful day to work on the corn circle garden with 31 mounds of corn beans and squash, and the Algoma university student garden raised beds. Everything is now planted. We took a tour through the food. Forest to check on a few areas. had a great day.

The greenhouse field trial for my Terra Preta soils research at harvest Algoma Food bank, is now planted fully as of this morning. It went great. It’s so good to see everything thriving
