USDA is partnering with tribal-serving organizations on projects to reimagine federal food and agriculture programs from an Indigenous perspective and inform future USDA programs and policies.

During FY23, indigenous chefs across the country to developed over 30 recipes and accompanying cooking videos that demonstrate how to combine Indigenous & locally forageable foods with items available to tribal communities through the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) federal emergency food program. The forageable foods featured in the recipes are identified by partner Indigenous foragers from each region who also develop plant identification sheets and videos to demonstrate how to identify and responsibly harvest these Indigenous foods. To date, these videos have reached over 100,000 viewers and helped spread awareness of how to use Indigenous foods to make healthier meals.
