Muchia Te Indigenous Land Trust spent 2023 continuing cultural revitalization programs. Our basket circle continues to meet bi-monthly and has grown to include new participants, including students from the Indigenous Student Club of Cabrillo College. We were invited to teach a basketry workshop at the college. Cata Gomes, our executive director, joined the educational committee of the Half Moon Bay Historical Society and was invited to share stories with multiple school groups that had field trips to the museum in 2023. Muchia Te began collaborations with the Heal Project (agriculture-based education to help students connect with their place in the environment) and with Pillarcitas Alternative High School. We have become a regular contributor to the Pacifica Voice publication to educate the general public about Rammaytush culture and concerns. There have been numerous radio interviews and an evening at California Institute of Integral Studies with L Frank Martinez discussing California Native Language revitalization. Our language program, Shalliy Rammaytush!, began meeting weekly in March 2023 and continues to flourish. We celebrated our first Tule harvest and continue our learning about the use of Tule in the revitalization of Rammaytush culture. Muchia Te Indigenous Land Trust has also become involved in protecting our ancestral village site of Timiktac along Calera Creek.
