A Life Sustaining Prairie

Description

Randilynn Boucher Giago (Dine/Isanti Dakota) explains how the prairie has provided medicines to people for thousands of years and how the plants work with the sacred pipe. Much like the quarrying of pipestone, the harvesting and use of this incredible resource by Indigenous people provides both sustenance and a connection to those who have come to Pipestone for centuries.
