Healing through land: Thunder Bay, Ont., opens Indigenous Community Medicine Garden

Roughly 20 residents joined the Lakehead Region Conservation Authority (LRCA) on the morning of June 5 to plant about 1,000 plants for the opening ceremony of an Indigenous Community Medicine Garden along the Neebing-McIntyre Floodway. Next to the Hope & Memory Garden, honouring those lost or currently battling cancer, the garden similarly offers space for the Indigenous community to honour the lives that have been taken in Thunder Bay, Ont.
