The Boreal Forest is home to 500 billion trees, billions of migratory birds, millions of lakes and miles of rivers! It stores more carbon than most tropical forests and plays a significant role in stabilizing our climate. The boreal forest is also home to hundreds of Sovereign Indigenous Nations and communities that have lived there for thousands of years. Each has their own unique history, language, cultural practices, and spiritual beliefs. Their ways of knowing nature offer a vision for a sustainable future. You can venture even deeper into the incredible #BorealForest all summer at Minnetrista Museum & Gardens! Our “Knowing Nature: Stories of the Boreal Forest” exhibition is on view there through September 22! #OurSharedPlanet
