Kallie Wood and her team are planting the seeds of sustainable Indigenous agriculture across the country one project at a time.

The National Circle for Indigenous Agriculture and Food (NCIAF) is an Indigenous-led non-profit focused on advancing Reconciliation within the agriculture industry and sparking dialogue on Indigenous agriculture.

Wood, the newly minted President and CEO of NCIAF, sees a lot of growth for Indigenous communities when it comes to farming and ranching.

“Our mantra is, everything we do is 100 per cent for Indigenous people,” said Wood, a member of Carry the Kettle Nakoda Nation.
