Agrarian Trust and an Indigenous collective are raising funds to support the long-term viability of a land rematriation project within the ancestral homelands of Nipmuc People in an area known as “Bogastow Farm.”
Situated just twenty-two miles from the center of Boston, this land is part of the Charles River Basin, a sacred river that continues to be a connection for seasonal ceremony and communal stewarding.
Thanks to hundreds of supporters and donors, the P8guaso Land Rematriation project has now achieved over 93% of their goal of raising $1,875,000.
With only around $119,000 left to fundraise, we invite you to show your support for Indigenous-led land rematriation and community-based stewardship.
Join us in giving to achieve this goal!
The vision for this land is to restore the matriarchal principles of earth-centered stewardship.
This way of stewarding land:
- restores polycultural food systems and local fisheries
- shares traditional medicine and food
- reengages the spiritual foundations of agrarian and land-based livelihoods
- embraces agroecology and anti-oppression/anti-violence frameworks as pathways to food sovereignty and the rebuilding of Indigenous agro-economies
- reestablishes the sacred ties between the indigenous descendants of the land, the land, and their sacred ways of knowing through the leadership of Black-Native and Native women, femmes, and two-spirits.
