Tobacco
The significance of tobacco to the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois), the growing of tobacco from a family in southern Ontario. Tobacco is of great significance to the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois). Tobacco has also become a commercial product and the process of growing is shown through the eyes of a generational family of tobacco growers in southern Ontario. Before the tobacco gets to GRE, there is a lot of thought and care put into how to grow the plant and sustain the land. GRE continues that thought and care while working with that tobacco during its processes.
Language
