Cedar Creek Park

“There are many issues across Indian Country . . .”

… but I feel that understanding food sovereignty can help in the fight against many of these battles. Food sovereignty, and regaining access to our land and traditional foods, not only benefits our health but also works in revitalizing our culture. It connects us in a profound way — when you go outside and harvest traditional medicines, and make it into a tea, it’s like you’re sharing a cup of tea with your ancestors, because they drank from that same medicine.”
