We live and learn on unceded Abenaki territory. Let us acknowledge that this land Ndakinna was and is to this moment inhabited by the original stewards of this landscape who were overcome by another culture that did not respect or value the richness of spirit and ideas of the Abenaki people. At Common Roots we acknowledge that it is our privilege to grow food on Abenaki ancestral ground taken from the original VT citizens. Our farm and the surrounding South Village neighborhood hold archeological evidence of Abenaki life ways.
