Knowledge Friday With The Shinnecock Kelp Farmers

The Church
Organized by The Church

Members: Free with RSVP
Non-Members: $1o

The Shinnecock Kelp Farmers are working to save and preserve our shores through the application of traditional Shinnecock teachings and climate science. Did you know that right now kelp is actively working to heal our East End Waters? Learn how when we dive deep at this Knowledge Friday.

Darlene Troge, Donna Collins-Smith, Tela Troge, Danielle Hopson Begun, and Rebecca Genia are the multi-generational collective known as The Shinnecock Kelp Farmers. Enrolled members of the Shinnecock Indian Nation, the women Farmers leverage their 10,000+ year-old traditional relationship with the sea and with seaweed to capture carbon and nitrogen that has poisoned the waters of Shinnecock Bay and beyond. Join us as we learn how the embodiment and application of Indigenous wisdom is cleaning and healing our waters and laying the groundwork for green jobs on the East End.
