In this episode we’re examining this country’s agricultural system through the lens of decolonization and focusing on the importance of Indigenous foodways. Our guest, Tiffany Traverse, tells us about her work with Fourth Sister Farm, preserving traditional Indigenous foods and reframing our relationship with seeds and with the land.
Tiffany is of Secwepemc and European descent. With Fourth Sister Farm she grows rare varieties of vegetables, fruits and other plants that are traditional to both Secwepemc and other Indigenous peoples. The goal of the farm is to connect with other seed and land stewards, and encourage community members to strive for stronger food security without extraction.
