AZ Native Plant Society Meeting

 

Presentation Description: This presentation will provide examples of ancestral and current Indigenous farming practices that have sustained communities and cultures in the Southwest for thousands of years. These agricultural practices can revitalize a local landscape into an edible landscape that is reflective of our bioregion and our diets.  This includes exploring traditional uses of native plants and trees, and how to utilize them in a local food system.
Bio: Kat Alicia Thompson grew up in Flagstaff, Arizona.  She received her graduate degree from Northern Arizona University in Forestry and Applied Indigenous Studies. Her studies focused on how tribes can secure food sovereignty through environmental land management practices. Currently, Kat is located in New Mexico and coordinating with Indigenous farmers in creating edible landscapes.
