Day 3 of took us off the resort and into the forest. 🌲

Today's full-day Tribal Tour brought attendees onto the lands of both the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin and the Stockbridge-Munsee Community — seeing sustainable forestry, ecological restoration, and land stewardship firsthand.

The evening brought member Tribes together for the ITC General Membership Meeting — an opportunity to connect directly with the Board of Directors.

Tomorrow is the final day. Concurrent workshops on biomass, fire management, and self-governance, followed by the Annual Business Meeting and the Awards Banquet honoring excellence in Tribal forestry. 👇

Day 2 of opened the way it should — with ceremony. 🌲

An invocation by Luke Besaw of the Menominee Language & Culture Code, the Posting of the Colors by Menominee and Mohican veterans, and the Skud Nation Drum Group set the tone for a full day of general sessions.

The day closed with a Host Welcome Dinner at Woodland Bowl, courtesy of the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin.

Tomorrow we head into the field — a full-day Tribal forest tour of Menominee and Stockbridge-Munsee lands, followed by the ITC General Membership Meeting. 👇

Day 1 of is underway on the homelands of the Menominee and Stockbridge-Munsee people. 🌲

Today's pre-symposium workshops brought our community together across the land — from USDA partnership sessions and silviculture field trips to a black ash basket weaving workshop and a canoe on Legend Lake.

✏️ The highlight of the evening: the opening of our Legacy Storytelling Studio, where community members began recording their ITC memories for our milestone 50th Symposium in 2027. History in the making — literally. (Raffle is open too! 🎟️)

Tomorrow the main sessions begin. Stay tuned. 👇
