Farm and Feast

Volunteer to help prepare Harvest of All First Nations’ plot at Growing Gardens. Harvest of All First Nations (HAFN) is focused on Indigenous-led reparations, rematriation, and an Earth-based decolonization organization. This includes ensuring food sovereignty through local farming. With HAFN’s team and educators from Denver’s American Indian Food Chain, Tocabe, we will discuss food sovereignty in Colorado. Following this discussion, we will enjoy some of Tocabe’s delicious creations and eat all together. Free food provided!
