” Mother Nature has many wonderful gifts to share. To find them, you must look, listen and honour the beauty that is all around you.”
– Trudy’s Rock Story

Cultural Connections: Gitxsan Nation
Home Base: Victoria, BC
Trudy is part of the Gitxsan Nation in British Columbia and belongs to the House of Gwininitxw of the Wolf Clan. Trudy’s traditional name, Lugaganowals, means a frog that is always leaning or giving. Trudy and her siblings were brought up to believe that children are like flowers. Today, she helps families to grow and flourish by sharing her knowledge of First Nation medicine, food, dress, and practices. By sharing her stories, Trudy makes knowledge keepers of us all.
