Indigenous Regenerative Food Systems
Exploring Sustainable Foods, Biodiversity, and Keystone Cultures
Overview
A Learning Journey with Dr. Lyla June
Explore Indigenous regenerative ecosystem designs and reassume our role as a keystone species.
Across the globe, humanity is starting to remember its true purpose–which is to serve and uplift Mother Earth, rather than dominate Her. Native American food systems and regenerative land management practices help us to remember what it means to be a keystone species–a species upon which entire ecosystems depend–and remind us of our inherent abilities to positively cultivate biodiversity and environmental health.
In this course, we will:
Journey through the four elements humanity has worked with since time immemorial
Learn how to respectfully engage with this information and integrate it appropriately
Reconnect with our human role as stewards of land, and as a keystones species
Register now to receive recordings, resources, and access to our online community.
All are welcome to join us virtually.
This course took place live on March 8, 2026, and may be offered live again in the near future.
Cost: Free or sliding-scale
There is a suggested $40-$60 donation for course access but NO ONE will be turned away for lack of funds.
Learning Journey
-
In this session, we will explore the many ways Indigenous fisheries have shown us that thriving societies have the capacity to not only harvest fish at a sustainable rate, but to improve the strength and numbers of our marine relatives and related ecosystems.
-
We will see how human beings have applied gentle and regenerative fire to the land, not only in North and South America, but also in Africa, Australia, Europe, Asia, and beyond. We will see how fire is an instrumental part of sustainable land management by facilitating the nutrient cycle process, and ironically creating nutrient dense grasslands in their way, which provide ample footage for herbivore populations.
-
In this session, we will explore ways that Indigenous Nations the world over, have not only not depleted their top soils, but have contributed to the depth of topsoil through millennial scale management of regional soil systems.
-
We will explore how the invisible world of the human mind and the human heart, which contains our cultural softwares and value systems, are just as vital as the invisible air that we breathe. We will see that strategy is actually not as important as intention when it comes to ecosystem management by highlighting the weightless, invisible, yet highly consequential effect that our worldview and self image has on how we impact the land around us.
