< Back Inter-Tribal Beauty Octavia Lewis, Master Esthetician/Reiki Practioner, and owner of Inter-Tribal Beauty spent her summers on the Spokane Indian Reservation. During community gatherings, it was the Intertribal Dance that she loved the best, as it was a dance intended for members of everyone, regardless of their background or identity. This inclusive dance was her inspiration for Inter-Tribal Beauty, founded under the vision that everyone deserves — and can achieve — healthy, acne-free skin. These exfoliating wipes, for example, are formulated with a blend of proven skin-clearing ingredients (think: mandelic acid, azelaic acid, and niacinamide) and natural add-ins like wild lemongrass and orange peel oils.

< Back HerbNHood HerbnHood was created to promote food sovereignty and traditional healing through natural, botanical products. As an Onkwehonwe, the Mohawk word for First People, I believe the earth provides all food and medicine needed for health and wellness.

From medicinal teas and remedies to self-care products, HerbnHood uses organic, home-cultivated herbs grown with reverence for the land. HerbnHood products can be found on Etsy as well as retailers in Portland OR and Kahnawake, the Mohawk reserve where my family resides. I also vend at powwows, the Indigenous Marketplace, and farmers markets throughout the Pacific Northwest. It is an honor to be able to offer high-quality products to my community and share the Traditional Ecological Knowledge that has been passed down to me.

< Back Takelma Coffee Roaster This word means ‘my friend’ and is used as a greeting in the Takelma language. Takelma is the traditional language of our people, the Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians. We are also known as the Nahankuotana in our native tongue. We are a federally recognized Native American tribe located in southwestern Oregon between the Cascade and Coast ranges in the Umpqua and Rogue River valleys. Takelma is only spoken in our beautiful homeland. Nowhere else in the world is the melodic cadence of our language heard. Takelma Roasting is an extension of our cultural connection to people and place. Using only specialty grade coffee that is sustainably sourced, we aim to craft a quality product while considering the effects our actions are having on our world. Much pride and care goes into our coffee and we are honored to share it with you. In keeping with tradition, please enjoy with family and friends over good conversation. Celebrate your connection to people and place! Tapʱoytʱa (to prosper, to be blessed). Over the last two centuries, our people have experienced a great number of changes. As a result, the number of Takelma speakers dwindled and our language went dormant. Fortunately, through the persistence of our elders and the support of our leaders, our language is no longer sleeping. The revitalization of the Takelma language is the revitalization of our people. Takelma truly is at the heart of our rich and vibrant culture, one of reverence towards the land, its resources, and our elders. It is through our oral traditions and Takelma language that our heritage and life’s important lessons are passed down from one generation to the next. Our customs also imbue in us a deep sense of generosity and hospitality towards our family, friends, neighbors, and guests. Every roasting profile we release has a Takelma word associated with it. This is a way to honor our history and culture, as well as spark a new conversation with every cup of coffee.

< Back National Farm to School Farm to School in Native Communities: From Grand Portage, Minn., on the Canadian border to Navajo Nation, and Molokai, Hawaii, to New York City, Native peoples of North America have been celebrating our connection to land, food and community for generations. Working with Native partners, the National Farm to School Network is exploring the unique opportunities for and challenges of expanding and sustaining farm to school in Native communities across the country. From developing school menus that include traditional foods like blue corn and bison to working with Native producers, planting heritage orchards, and connecting classroom education with tribal seed banks, together we are breaking down barriers and reinvigorating traditional foodways. Seed Exchange in Native Communities with Farm to School: From 2017-2019, National Farm to School Network's Seed Change in Native Communities with Farm to School project aimed to expand farm to school activities (procurement of local and traditional foods, school gardens, and food and agriculture education) in Native communities as a strategy to leverage community-wide initiatives towards building food security and food sovereignty and towards revitalizing use of traditional foods. Five Native schools were awarded mini-grants to expand and promote farm to school in their communities.

< Back Burns Paiute Tribe The Burns Paiute Tribe is a community of 210 people dedicated to the healthy development of our families. While maintaining the endurance of cultural values and the protection of our vital natural resources, community members enjoy a healthy lifestyle with ample opportunity for vocational and recreational activities. Thanks to the Tribe’s early emphasis on health, wellness and education, our social and justice programs are minimal since the issues that require the need for those programs have all but been eliminated. Tribal leadership is strong, fair and a great model to be followed by future generations of Burns Paiute leaders. The Burns Paiute Reservation is located in rural eastern Oregon. The Burns Paiute Tribe is primarily comprised of the descendants of the Wadatika Band of Northern Paiutes. The traditional homelands of the Burns Paiute include 5250 square miles of land in central-southeastern Oregon, Northern Nevada, northwestern California and western Idaho. The Burns Paiute still maintain aboriginal title to much of our aboriginal territory. The Tribe currently has 402 enrolled members of which 142 people call the Reservation their home. We are a relatively “young” community with over 50% of our population being under the age of 18.

< Back Canoe Journey Herbalists Canoe Journey Herbalists is an Indigenous-centered, community-supported project consisting of herbalists, healers, and dedicated volunteers. Throughout the year, we grow, gather, and craft thousands of herbal remedies by creating collaborations with Coastal Salish communities and ally organizations. These medicines are then offered as part of a free, decolonized herbal and Indigenous healing space for the largest gathering of Coastal Salish communities in the Pacific Northwest, the Intertribal Canoe Journey. ​We believe that access to traditional medicine, ancestral connection, and health sovereignty are integral to healing personal and collective wounds of trauma and colonization. We enact these beliefs by providing opportunities to connect with plant healing, supporting Indigenous communities through responding to community needs and fostering pathways for learning about plant medicine and decolonization through year-round workshops and knowledge-sharing.

< Back Turtle Valley Foods In 2016 we decided we were burnt out on wondering where our family's food was coming from, how it was raised, and trying to read all those $10 words in the ingredients list. After a lot of research on where we could find food that we could feed our children guilt-free we came to a realization...that kind of food just couldn't be found in our area. In 2019 after several years of gardening and raising some turkeys, chickens, and pigs we realized that if we couldn't find these kinds of foods in the grocery store then there must be others out there that want the peace of mind that comes with serving their family wholesome, healthy, delicious, local food. With that realization, we officially launched Turtle Valley Foods in 2019. Since our founding, we have encountered people from all walks of life from our community on the Coeur d' Alene reservation in north Idaho, and surrounding communities like Post Falls, Coeur d' Alene, Moscow, Sandpoint, and everywhere in between that were on the same search for food they could be proud to put on the dinner table every night. Since we started this farm journey we have realized that the regenerative farming practices we believe in and use on our farm have the power to heal the land, our people, and our communities, and build a local resilient food economy. Farming for us is not just about making a living, it's about improving the health of the communities we serve in all its forms physical, mental, spiritual, emotional, and economic.
