Episode 2: Pjila'si Thinking Outside: the Learn-to Camp Podcast

- Places & Travel
Maybe we’re not turtles, but we still have a place in nature.
In the second episode of Thinking Outside, we explore our relationship with nature and the responsibility that comes with it.
Listen in to hear Rose Meuse and Cedar Meuse-Waterman share how much meaning is wrapped up in a single Mi’kmaw word -- Pjila’si. This word in Mi’kmaw has a lot to teach us about our place in the world -- everyone can learn from it.
You’ll also hear from Jennie Eaton, the Volunteer Coordinator at Kejimkujik National Park and National Historic Site, who tells us about the deep connection volunteers have with the park; Norm Greene, the co-founder of Friends of Keji, who talks about his time spent working to save the Blanding’s turtle from extinction; and Alex Cole, co-owner of Little Foot Yurts, who talks about sustainable building practices and the simple solution of Leave No Trace.
Join us as we explore our place in the outdoors.
Many thanks to our guests. You can find more information about Friends of Keji here and Little Foot Yurts here.
