City of Superior & the Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa,

In response to research that illuminated the role of ishkode (fire in Ojibwemowin) in shaping pine forests at Wisconsin and Minnesota Point, the City of Superior and Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Ojibwe are working together to reignite cultural fire practices while protecting public safety and restoring species that thrive after fire. Superior and FDL representatives will share the process and purpose of bringing good fire back to Superior.
