ABOUT SEEDS OF HARMONY
Our Mission
CARE FOR THE EARTH.
CARE FOR THE PEOPLE.
SHARE THE BOUNTY.
We achieve our mission by empowering our tribal communities to practice and maintain a sustainable and healthy way of life while learning from and teaching about our local ecosystems as well as fostering respect and care for our watersheds.
Background
Our roots are within the heart of the largest Indigenous nation in the United States, the Navajo Nation. We are surrounded by some of the most beautiful, diverse, and sensitive lands.
Unfortunately, we are also faced with many social disparities that exist within many tribal communities, such as poverty, substance abuse, mental health concerns, lack of infrastructure, remote living within a food desert, and over dependence on the government.
These challenges have resulted in a large focus of the government and people being absorbed in basic survival. In turn, the people, land, vegetation, waterways, wetlands, springs, and watersheds have suffered.
In our remote land, the impacts of climate change are very evident.
