Land Acknowledgement

We gratefully acknowledge and respect the People of the First Light whose ancestral home includes all of Brewster. They have been guardians of this land for thousands of years and we are inspired to join them in the ongoing mission of ensuring its protection.

We honor the cultural significance of Cape Cod’s Indigenous people, and we humbly acknowledge the
history of their mistreatment and oppression.

We recognize the injustices of the past and strive to take correct actions now and in the future through the best practices of land stewardship and the protection of water, wildlife, and other natural resources. In doing this we seek to be effective partners with the Wampanoag tribe in caring for our shared home.
