The Metlakatla Indian Community plans to develop a program that will increase economic security, improve healthy food options, improve access to culturally significant foods and facilitate the fostering the next generation of traditional food cultivators, harvesters, gatherers, and preservers. Activities to be performed include purchasing locally produced and harvested foods and distributing them equitably in the community. The expected outcome will be more locally produced and harvested foods available to elders, and others who may have difficulty accessing these foods.
