The George Link Jr. Environmental Awareness Lecture/Food Day Keynote Address
Rowen White, Mohawk Seedkeeper
“Seeds of Resilience: The Cultural Dimension of Plant Biodiversity”
Monday, October 23
4:00 pm
Steele 006
Join Mohawk Seedkeeper Rowen White as she shares stories from the Indigenous Land
and Seed Sovereignty movement, which embodies the vision of sustainable relational agriculture and shares the depth of the cultural dimension of plant biodiversity in North America. She will share the collective vision of intercultural healing that emerges
when we center Indigenous leadership, ecological knowledge, cultural memory, and sovereignty of living in relationship with the cultural inheritance of land, seeds, and other non-human kin. Her uplifting stories from her work at the Indigenous Seedkeepers
Network will paint an uplifting picture of cultural and climate sanity for the regenerative land stewardship movement in these times of great transformation.
Bio: Rowen White is a Seedkeeper/farmer and author from the Mohawk community
of Akwesasne and a passionate activist for indigenous seed and food sovereignty. She is the Educational Director and lead mentor of Sierra Seeds, an innovative Indigenous seed bank and land-based educational organization located in Nevada City, CA. Rowen is
the Founder of the Indigenous Seedkeepers Network, which is committed to restoring the Indigenous Seed Commons, and currently serves as a Cooperative Seed Hub Coordinator.
