The future of farming on Six Nations was the topic on the table at a recent invitation-only event held by the Six Nations Farmers Association (SNFA).
The event was held last weekend on January 13 and 14th at the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation Community Centre. .
The Association invited members in different sectors of the community to get their input and thoughts on how to sustain farming and food security on Six Nations in the future. CKRZ News reporter David Moses was one of the people chosen to attend the event.
Several presentations were made including a feasibility plan from KL Martin and Associates and a survey by the SNFA. Participants were asked to brainstorm their own ideas.
SNFA member Jesse Porter said any solution would need to be community owned.
The SNFA and Food Security, Sustainability Task Force will provide an update after all the information form the event and brainstorm sessions have been compiled in order to create a plan for next steps.
