Land Acknowledgement

I want to acknowledge that Earth Star Healing Collective was created and currently exists on the traditional territories of the Anishinaabek, Haudenosaunee, Lūnaapéewak and Chonnonton Nations, on lands connected with the London Township and Sombra Treaties of 1796 and the Dish with One Spoon Covenant Wampum. This land continues to be home to diverse Indigenous Peoples (First Nations, Métis and Inuit) that we recognize as contemporary stewards of the land and vital contributors of our society.

Our ability to be working and living here now—in London (Escunnisepe), ON, Canada —is a direct benefit of policies of expulsion and assimilation of Indigenous peoples during the time of settlement and Confederation, and since. The harms of these policies are many and are still being felt in Indigenous communities today.

I recognize that we are only guests on this land to those who have taken care of and appreciated it before us. I appreciate what the land has to offer and respectfully only take what we need.

Our responsibility as a small business residing on stolen land is to support, amplify and listen to all indigenous communities. We will be donating portions of live sales and shop updates to any organizations, individual folks who need financial support, communities/areas that need more resources. Please feel free to reach out to us via email: charlie.earthstarhealingco@gmail.com if you may know of any Indigenous folks and/or organizations needing mutual aid.
