Keepers of the Season LLC
About: Keepers of the Seasons is an Indigenous-owned plant knowledge and wellness company founded by Darcy Fisher (Ktunaxa) and Jenny Fisher (Salish, Kootenai, Pend d'Oreille). Rooted in the homelands of ʔamakʔis Ktunaxa, their work carries forward generations of plant teachings shared by Knowledge Holders and guided by seasonal relationships with the land. Through education, documentation, and handcrafted products, they support families, educators, and communities in reconnecting with traditional plant wisdom and land-based learning.
Their signature offering, Walking Through the Seasons, is a 300+ page living archive of ceremony, territory, and the plants that remember us. It includes over 60 plant profiles with traditional names, teachings for all four seasons, and guidance for those who cannot walk these lands, those just remembering, and those yet to come.
Their complementary wellness line, Six Twenty Skincare, brings traditional plant medicine into daily practice through solar-infused botanicals, ancestral tallow, and formulations grounded in knowledge that has always worked.
Keepers of the Seasons is rooted in cultural stewardship, honoring intergenerational teachings and the deep relationships between people, plants, and place.
