NATIVE HEALTH IN NATIVE HANDS
PLANTS THAT NOURISH US
In addition to being a source of nutrition, our Indigenous food is a source of belonging and connection to place, a means of expressing and experiencing reciprocity with the landscape and continuity of identity. The diversity of traditional Native foods, flavorful recipes and medicines, reflect our knowledge and connection over millennia with ancestral homelands, traditional territories and waters as well as our respect for all beings (human and nonhuman) within that place. Ecological stewardship, food sovereignty and community health live hand in hand.
Plants that Nourish US gatherings and initiatives promote Indigenous access to traditional lands and land management, traditional food stewardship, mentorship and research to strengthen our sustainable relationship with our home lands and waters and traditional foods.
Plants that Nourish US Living Library is digital resource to enjoy, to share and to help build (see below).
