 t\n\nApril Ogimaakwe Stone\, an Ojibwe Black Ash basket maker from the B
 ad River reservation in northern Wisconsin\, has been working with black
  ash since 1998. She spent one year studying a basket in use before atte
 mpting to weave her first basket in the spring of 1999 and ended up fall
 ing in love with all things connected to this craft including live harve
 st and log processing of raw material into usable splint for weaving. Si
 nce 2000\, she has researched and traveled extensively\, sharing her ski
 lls with young and old. April harvests all of her raw materials from the
  ceded territory swamps and forests of northern Wisconsin and processes 
 it all by hand\, providing beautiful\, natural material for her own bask
 ets and for baskets made by others. She believes in the traditional skil
 l building of handwork and the healing power of making baskets and has r
 eceived much recognition for her working knowledge of Black Ash basketry
 \, while being thought of as a patient and gentle educator.\n\n"Baapaagi
 maak (black ash) marked the beginning of my journey with traditional cra
 ft as an Indigenous woman from northern Wisconsin..opening me up to the 
 establishment of greater connections with other plant beings that exist 
 all around me and what historically was made with them."
