Cherokee Medicine Keepers, Protecting Plant Knowledge

- Plants are medicine in Cherokee culture and a small group of traditional Cherokee elders are doing what they can to protect sacred plants and preserve that knowledge for future generations. We were honored to spend time with our medicine keepers and document part of their journey to save an important part of Cherokee lifeways.

I love when people see nature not as a mass of green, but a thing we live with, use, and are a part of.
The Cherokee people and culture, what an amazingly advanced civilization.

I'm trying to start a Tipi Village and community garden which has been my dream 4 many moons. What Island do you live on?
I've also been to the Taro patch oh, they have a large Tipi there & John is wonderful & is the Guardian of the LAND.
Thank you for loving, learning from, and protecting those plants. I am so grateful to you all.

Thank you so much for sharing your insight! I found some of my ancestors on the Dawes Rolls. Plants are medicine used wisely but poison used foolishly.
😍 Rattlesnake Master!
I hope this helps keep the knowledge alive after the elders are gone. So much knowledge and so many plants have been lost
great video!
I have been reconnecting to my biological roots over this past year and what a journey. But this is just what my soul also needed to come across today. Further more I too have (apparently through recent ancestral research) found ties to a possible sixkiller great great grandmother. Still so much more to discover, like my Bushyhead Grandparents and so on. Wado, Osio TV for your sharing of all these stories and knowledge that I truly believe in too and see the importance of things being passed down.
Great and important story well told. Really nicely filmed and edited. Thank you for sharing
Wado! 🙏🏻🙌🏻
Keeping it alive💜
