Indigenous Experiences
About Organization
After 20 plus years of offering their cultural programming on Victoria Island, Indigenous Experiences were inspired by the Ojibwe spirit horses to find a new location that allowed the organization to offer more land-based cultural and culinary programming. With the mission of sharing the land, stories and food from an Indigenous perspective, the vision of Madahoki Farm became a reality when the NCC approved a 25 year lease on the beautiful 164 acre property in Ottawa’s Greenbelt. With Government of Canada support, through the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario (FedDev Ontario), as part of the Tourism Relief Fund (TRF), Indigenous Experiences was able to transform this former event space (of Lonestar Ranch) into a thriving year round Indigenous cultural agritourism destination in the National Capital Region.
The Farm is also the new home for a series of Indigenous events celebrating the seasons; Sīgwan (Spring), Tagwàgi (Autumn) and Pibòn (Winter) and the annual Summer Solstice Indigenous Festival formerly held at Vincent Massey Park. Madahoki is the year round home of an Indigenous marketplace that promotes products made by Indigenous makers and artisans as well as the the permanent home for a growing herd of endangered Ojibwe Spirit Horses. Group bookings of authentic Indigenous experiences are available year round.
