Ancestral Lands Acoma

About

The vision for Ancestral Lands, a partnership with Conservation Legacy, is to “lead our Nations back to ecological and cultural well-being.” In this program, youth are trained in traditional and modern farming techniques, including: dryland and irrigated farming, procurement of heirloom and culturally valued crops, and seed saving, all culminating in food production and supply of crops to the community, as well as insight into cultural perspective and philosophy aligned with indigenous farming.
