Land Acknowledgement

We acknowledge that the original stewards of the land and nature of this area were Native American tribes which spoke a Siouan language. There were many of these tribes, but only two of them, the Saura and the Keyauwee, are known to have settled the area which became the original Guilford County. We show our respect to those people and those who came after them and honor their labor as original caretakers of this land. As we strive to steward the rich habitat and wildlife of our area, we honor and celebrate the many people, past, present and future, who engaged with the land and to this day continue to do so. We invite you to join us in continuing their care for this land and its natural resources.
