How do Iinni behave throughout the seasons? What helps support a healthy herd? How can their movement care for the land?
Dan will share how he incorporates Blackfoot teachings into caring for his herd, why access to clean, natural water matters and how moving the Iinni between pastures throughout the seasons can support a healthy ecosystem.
In the afternoon, participants will visit the pasture to meet the Iinni and see these practices firsthand.
