Traditional Ecological Knowledge Video Series

This two-part video series was produced in partnership with the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde (CTGR), Polk Soil & Water Conservation District and the LWC, with additional funding support by Benton Soil & Water Conservation District and Willamette Habitat Restoration Fund. This series focuses on teaching private landowners how they incorporate Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) and partner with CTGR in maintaining oak habitat on their land.The first video begins by defining TEK and its importance to landscape restoration, and describing the cultural significance of many native plant species. The second video explains how landowners can incorporate the principles of TEK into their own land management strategies, and features the story of a Polk County landowner who is managing her cattle ranch to protect Oregon white oak and other native plants important to the Tribes.
