Seneca Nation of Indians Gakwi:yo:h Farms
As an agriculture initiative, the goal of Seneca Nation is to reconnect to the philosophy of the Nation’s ancestors and pledge to promote the relationship between its people, its lands, and its foods. Gakwi:yo:h Farms addresses food security and food sovereignty by making healthy foods available to the community, from field to table.
