LF has participated on the Okanogan Region Food Council since its inception, and has supported coordination and collaborations between Okanogan County and the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation (CTCR). Over the years, LF's work has included key roles in the Inchelium Red Garlic Revitalization Coalition, the OK Region's Local Community Food System Assessment, and the inclusion of an LF objective into the Okanogan Region 10-year Food Action Plan.
LF participates with the Spokane Tribal Network (STN) and other partners to help advance and support their food sovereignty demonstration site on the Spokane Reservation and associated harvest and gathering activities.

Our newest endeavor, in late 2025 LF began coordination with partners in multiple WA state counties to support Tribal Nations & Indigenous Peoples (TIP) food access, security, and sovereignty. Stay tuned for more!
In the summer of 2025, the Okanagan Region Food Council unanimously adopted LF's proposed objective to include in their 10-year Food Action Plan. The objective will strengthen Indigenous food sovereignty and build resilient agricultural and land practices for future generations. It serves as a mechanism to facilitate cultural preservation and environmental stewardship while addressing food insecurity by supporting Tribal sovereignty and Indigenous rights for the next Seven Generations. See the slides below for an overview of the LF objective.
We support the restoration and cultivation of native Plant and Pollinator Relatives and the culturally respectful conservation of habitats and ecosystems which are climate resilient and adaptive.
