The purpose of the Healthy Roots initiative is to increase community and individual wellbeing by encouraging Six Nations community members to incorporate traditional Haudenosaunee foods and activities into their daily lives. Healthy Roots envisions a more sustainable, self-sufficient community like that of our ancestors, who enjoyed a communal, cooperative lifestyle.

Healthy Roots is a collaboration of people from community organizations at Six Nations including:

• Six Nations Health Services• Our Sustenance Greenhouse and Market• Two Row Times• Kakhwa’on:we/Real People Eat Real Food• Dreamcatcher Charitable Foundation

The centrality of food to traditional Haudenosaunee society is evidenced in the many art forms and activities that extend from the agricultural lifestyle and cycle of ceremonies, including dancing, singing, oration, pottery and basketmaking, compounding, social organization and storytelling. We seek to find a balance between ancient wisdom and its practical application to life in a modern world.

Dangers & Precautions:

Fentanyl can be used and abused in different forms, both prescribed and non-pharmaceutical including;

Pills Powder Liquid Patch Lollipop/Sucker– mixed with Other Substances

Fentanyl is a highly potent synthetic opioid (painkiller).

Fentanyl acts as a depressant, slowing down the messages travelling between the brain and body.

Fentanyl is 50 to 100 times more powerful than morphine.

Fentanyl is impossible to detect – it is odorless, colorless, tasteless, and can lead to overdose in minimal consumption.

Fentanyl is unique in that it can be knowingly & unknowingly mixed in with other drugs.

Fentanyl is very, very highly addictive!

Similar to fentanyl, carfentanil is 100 times stronger and used to sedate large animals– It is not used for human consumption.

Those who may be at risk of exposure or their family members are asked to take precaution by picking up a Naloxone Kit available cost-free at a local pharmacy.

Please work with us to help our community

Let Your Loved Ones Know About FENTANYL For more information on opioids or if you or someone you know is battling

with substance use contact New Directions Group at (519) 445-2947 If you have questions after-hours call the Six Nations Crisis Line 1-866-445-2204
