This is the fourth anniversary of the First Nation-Farmer Climate Unity March that occurred September 1-8, 2018.
One of the main goals of the March was to create a community of native and nonnative people who began to get to know and trust each other. I’m in the process of writing about the many things that happened as a result of this March. That is taking a while since so much has happened. While I continue that, I thought I’d review some of what happened during the March.
The First Nation Farmer Climate Unity March website contains extensive stories, photos, and videos.
