Ellen and Elise Gerhart are a mother-daughter team who resisted the seizure of their land by eminent domain for the construction of a natural gas pipeline which would transport natural gas liquids for the production of plastics. Ellen and Elise welcomed protestors and resisters onto their land to form Camp White Pine, holding tree stands to block the pipeline construction. In 2018, Ellen, a retired schoolteacher and grandmother, was arrested for nonviolently resisting the pipeline construction.
