Ziibimijwang Farm and Indigenous Food Sovereignty
Jospeh VanAlstine
Join us to hear from Ziibimijwang Farm and their amazing work with Indigenous Food Sovereignty right here in the mitten! Ziibimijwang (ZEE-Ba mige-waang) is owned by the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians. The purpose of the 100 acre farm will enhance LTBB food sovereignty by providing a reliable food source for the community independent of the larger food system, encouraging a healthy lifestyle for our people and enhancing people’s knowledge and ability to do farming/gardening and subsistence activities for themselves. Ziibimijwang is located in the “Tip of the Mitt” only 10 miles south of Mackinaw City, Michigan. Proud to grow high quality, nutritionally dense, seasonal vegetables using sustainable farming practices that will follow Organic standards that care for the soil, groundwater, and adjacent natural areas. No synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides on the farm.
