Frequently asked questions
Currently, many of our events, such as Council, women's and men's circles, workshops, and seasonal celebrations, are held in various places around Spokane, Washington. We mostly rely on free rental locations or public lands and parks to gather.
We are currently in the process of preparing property about 40 minutes north of Spokane, in the town of Diamond Lake. This property will become our ceremonial grounds and hold other special gatherings and events as well. We feel incredibly honored to be stewards of this land -- about 50 acres of trees, streams, rock outcroppings, a pond, cedar grove, and more. Any donations to assist with the set up of the road, building, bathrooms, and basic facilities are greatly appreciated at this time. We also are very grateful for any volunteer services during the warmer months when we tend to the property and start building our ceremony facilities. If you are interested in assisting with this work, you can complete the volunteer form.
We also would like to take this opportunity to respectfully acknowledge that we live, work, and gather on the traditional lands of the interior Salish tribes, specifically including the Spokane Tribe, the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation, the Coeur d'Alene Tribe, the Kalispel Tribe of Indians, and the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho. These tribes have been the caretakers of these lands for thousands of years, in which we recognize their profound cultural, spiritual, and historical connection to place. We express our gratitude for the enduring presence and contributions of all Indigenous peoples to the cultural, ecological, and social fabric of this region which we benefit from today. We honor the wisdom and practices they continue to impart, which help guide others to the path of a more holistic way of being, and sustains the land and its ecosystems for future generations.
With this acknowledgement, we are personally committed to supporting First Nations peoples in the following ways: (1) the recognition and fulfillment of the Tribes' treaty rights; (2) to be responsible stewards of the land both physically and spiritually, upholding sacred reciprocity with our non-human kin; and (3) to listening, learning, and engaging in efforts that promote reconciliation, healing, and respect for Native communities and organizations.
