The Compost Education Centre is located on unceded and occupied
Indigenous territories, specifically the land of the Lekwungen
speaking peoplethe Esquimalt and Songhees Nations. These nations are
two of many, made up of individuals who have lived within the porous
boundaries of what is considered Coast Salish, Nuu-Chah-Nulth and
Kwakwa'wakw Territory (Vancouver Island) since time immemorial. At the
CEC we seek to respect, honour and continually grow our own
understandings of Indigenous rights and history, and to fulfill our
responsibilities as settlers, who live and work directly with the land
and its complex, vital ecologies and our diverse, evolving
communities.
