…that is how the Natwani Coalition of Hopi people describes their mission and why they are recovering their traditional food ways…

…and that’s why Monica, Ben and I will be in Arizona and New Mexico until Wednesday. It’s the FINAL RETREAT for this 2005-2006 BLAST Cadre, and we are excited to be “digging in” to projects associated with a couple Cadre/BLAST members, past and present.
We’ll also be spending time with the Taos County Economic Development Corporation. They have a kitchen incubator program, and have arranged for us to meet a lot of the women entrepreneurs here as well as with youth groups in the area. We’re hoping to further expand our network here.
