Sowing Seeds of Local Abundance
Sowing Seeds of Local Abundance: A Tolowa Dee-ni’ Nation Agricultural Enterprise and Farmer Training Feasibility Study project analyzed local agricultural economic opportunities.

Potential future farmers, the Tolowa Dee-ni’ Nation and its citizens, Smith River food entrepreneurs and residents, and regional institutions, are all identified beneficiaries.
