Nebraska Harvest of the Month Indigenous Foods

 
Many foods we eat today have existed in North America for years and have been essential for Native American Tribes across the country. Indigenous Harvest of the Month highlights some of these items. Each tribe is unique and what they eat varies according to the area, tribe, and traditions and can be appreciated on its own merits. The reader should understand that these resources include general descriptions that vary with different tribes. The Indigenous Harvest of the Month program was developed in partnership with the Center for Rural Affairs.
