IRS990/Desc0Food Sovereignty/Healthy Food Systems/Sustainability: Establishment of a healthy foods hub allowing greater food access in the rural reservation "food desert." The hub includes a food bank, a healthy foods cafe, a food recovery project rescuing about 2 million lbs. of expired food a year from neighboring urban areas and redistributing it to the impoverished community; a program that serves meals made from the food recovery to the hungry in the community with a delivery to elders; and an educational program that promotes healthy lifestyles and teaches nutrition, natural farming, hunting, gathering wild plants and medicine and the preparation of traditional foods. An Indigenous Discovery Center is in the process of development to be a learning and training center for food sovereignty, energy sustainability, land stewardship and indigenous knowledge. During 2019 1,250,000 lbs of food was donated to this organization for distribution to Tribal communities.
