Land Acknowledgement
We acknowledge that the original stewards of the land and nature
of what is now Durham County included several Siouan-speaking
tribes. Among the earliest inhabitants were Eno, Occaneechi,
Shakori and Adshusheer peoples. We show our respects to those
peoples and those who came after them and honor their labor as
original caretakers of this land. As we endeavor to steward the rich
habitat and wildlife of the Durham area, we draw on and celebrate
the many people, past, present and future, who engaged with the
land and to this day continue to do so. We invite you to join us in
continuing their care for this land and its natural resources.
