Our December Seedlings recipient is Dream of Wild Health. Round up your purchases all month long to support their work.

The mission of Dream of Wild Health (DWH) is to restore health and well-being in the Native community by recovering knowledge of and access to healthy indigenous foods, medicines, and lifeways. They do this by creating culturally based opportunities for youth employment, entrepreneurship and leadership; increasing access to Indigenous foods through farm production, sales and distribution; and Community outreach and education around reclaiming cultural traditions.

DWH leads the local Indigenous food movement through the network leadership of the Indigenous Food Network and the Upper Midwest Indigenous Seed Keepers Network. In 2020, DWH produced 8.25 tons of organic vegetables, including over 6,000 pounds of food donations, engaged over 12,500 people and maintained one of the largest collections of Indigenous seeds in the region.
