Land Acknowledgement

We acknowledge that Arcadia Wildlife Sanctuary is located on the traditional, contemporary, and unceded territories of the Nonotuck, Nipmuc, and Pocumtic Nations. These lands were stolen from the Indigenous people, creating a legacy of injustice that persists to this day.

We acknowledge that Indigenous stewardship of the land kept its ecological and human communities vibrant, strong, and interconnected for thousands of years. To this day Indigenous peoples remain at the forefront of climate action, ecological stewardship, and environmental justice.

Mass Audubon is committed to learning, listening, and evolving so that someday soon we may live in right relationship with the people who have been the rightful stewards of the land for thousands of years.
