Piñon Season: Coming together to protect a culturally significant species

My film is about Piñon picking and the importance of the Piñon pine to the Diné (Navajo) people and other tribal communities across the Southwest. In the video, five stories are shared that cover cultural significance, utility, and familial ties to Piñon picking. Additionally, it discusses the impact climate change is having on the Piñon pine and how hotter climates will only cause more trees to die off. Thus, we ask how we can help protect Piñon pine trees today and into the future.
