About Judy & Jake Swamp

For over thirty years, Jake Swamp served as a Mohawk Sub-Chief and representative on the Grand Council of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Confederacy. He offers a wide range of experience in Indigenous, environmental, and social issues both locally, nationally, and internationally. Jake, along with his wife, Judy, has worked tirelessly for the communities of the Iroquois people, and bridging cultural difference - in the spirit of respectful dialogue and collective action - in addressing environmental and social problems.

The Swamps founded the Tree of Peace Society in 1984 and have traveled the world planting trees and talking about caring for the earth, emphasizing individual responsibility for one’s actions, and a deep personal relationship with the natural world.
