This past month, we have been proudly partnering with ŚW̱,ȻENEṈITEL Indigenous Foods Initiative. Our role is to help make some of the native plants available for the project.
The ŚW̱,ȻENEṈITEL Indigenous Foods Initiative (Doing Good Work Together) is a project supported by the Capital Region Food and Agriculture Initiatives Roundtable (CRFAIR), with support from the Horner Foundation, that began in response to recent and future impacts of Covid-19.
The program is in support of Indigenous families planting gardens that include Indigenous foods (native plants) and veggies, as well as accessing Indigenous foods and medicines.
The program has seen a remarkable response from families and more funding is needed. They are now seeking community support.
