About:

Toohnii Binaneest’ą’ Ałtaas’éí ’began meeting as farmers with common concerns in the winter of 2019 and saw the scope of our collective concerns needed a concerted effort to seek solutions. We organized into a farmers advocacy group to unify our efforts, plans and to seek resources to develop capacity to address our concerns and make an impact on the lives of our farming families and all who partake of our produce and products. On a macro level we want to create economic viability, and to build a self-sustaining food system. The mission of ToohBAA is to provide healthy produce and added value food products to Navajo Nation communities, other Indigenous Nations, and the Four Corners region.
