Bringing ‘Good Fire’ Back to the Land — Michaela Haas (2025)
Source: Original · Readwise highlight
days, which means “good fire,” on Yocha Dehe tribal lands in the Cache Creek Nature Preserve in Northern California.
- Role: setting
- In the article: The Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation revives cultural burns on its tribal lands in the preserve during autumn ‘good fire’ days. A Maidu fire practitioner starts a fire with a fire stick and board, and a visiting professor ties tule stalks into torches.
- Why it matters: It is the only place named for the scene and where the revived burning practice is shown; the excerpt is very short.
