Revitalizing Indigenous Food Systems

Sean Sherman, an award-winning chef and activist, is on a mission to revitalize indigenous food systems and raise awareness of their transformative potential. Through his nonprofit organization, North American Traditional Indigenous Food Systems, Sean aims to create access to indigenous foods and education. The organization has launched an Indigenous Food Lab in Minneapolis, featuring an open Native American food market and community classes. The lab also serves as a production kitchen and a support center for other indigenous entrepreneurs. Sean's ultimate goal is to scale and replicate this model to spread access to healthy indigenous foods and support indigenous communities across the region.
