There are many teachings about the Four Directions—often called the Four Winds. With so many stories shared across tribes, books, and online spaces, it can be difficult to know what is accurate.

What is the Medicine Wheel? Where did it come from? How do these teachings guide our daily lives?

Join us at our next Family Culture Night on Thursday, March 19 AT Southeastern Oneida Tribal Services as we deepen our understanding and explore how these teachings help us build stronger relationships—with ourselves, each other, and the world around us.

On Thursday, March 19, wear blue and join our Health Promotion Disease Prevention team for Blue Beads Day! There will be healthy food tastings, trivia & prizes, and information about colorectal cancer screenings.

Our Seed Starting Gathering is coming up Tuesday, March 10, and we’d love to see you there as we get ready for the upcoming garden season. Join us in the Community Room on the 2nd floor of GLIIHC to learn when and how to start plants from seed.

You can help plant seeds that will later be transferred to the Native Wellness Garden, or bring your own seeds to get started. We also encourage seed swapping, so feel free to bring extras to share with others.

Let’s come together to learn, share, and get excited for another season of growing.

Thank you to Natural Foods Co-op for their generous seed donation to help us kick off this gardening season!
