Co-operatives First
In this episode, Trista speaks to Lea Zeise and Jen Falck of Ohe·láku, a nonprofit co-op in Wisconsin. The co-op's members are Oneida families relearning how to grow traditional White Corn together and sharing the lessons they learn.
This is a lovely conversation about using a co-operative to grow food for the community while embracing tradition and ceremony.
