Coffee & Geography 1x25 White Raven Woman Candace Lloyd (Canada)

Kit talks to White Raven Woman Candace Lloyd, chatting about medicinal teas, knowledge sharing and keeping, the ‘culture shock’ of supermarkets, the disconnect and reconnect with working with the land, amongst other things! Candace is a Métis cultural advisor, speaker and educator focused on cultural awareness workshops, Truth and Reconciliation training and relationship building. Candace recognizes the power of bringing people together from all walks of life; building community is a time-honoured tradition of the Métis. Her goal is to find pathways to work together in the spirit of collaboration and harmony.
