Chapter Events

Izhi-Minoging Mashkikiwan, Place Where Medicines Grow Well, is the Cheboiganing Burt Lake Band's healing garden located at their office headquarters in Brutus, MI. This garden features over 40 species of Great Lakes native plants arranged to symbolically represent the Ojibwe Medicine Wheel and Anishinaabe beadwork. The Band worked with former University of Michigan graduate student and present day landscape architect, Eva Roos, on the design and installation both the healing garden and the greater headquarters landscape. In this presentation, Eva will share about the design and installation process, symbolism embedded within the garden, ecological benefits of chosen plants, and lessons learned from the garden.
