Abundance has never looked like monoculture.

Hundreds of species can make up a single Indigenous food system, and the colonial erasure of these lifeways has been a devastating loss for both Native Peoples and the land itself.

Today and every day, we recognize Indigenous communities as the primary stewards of biodiversity and interspecies kinship across Turtle Island, as well as the inherent rights of Tribal Nations to govern their lands, waters, and foodways.

Happy Indigenous Peoples’ Day! 🦬

For nearly two decades, AGRA (Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa) has presented increased agricultural industrialization and “improved” seeds as pathways to food security across Africa. 🌍 🏭

The outcomes of that approach tell a different story.

Aside from criticisms of neocolonialism, privatization, and corporate control, the datas show that the AGRA model has far from delivered on its promises.

These findings are yet another reminder that food security means resilient and biodiverse systems rooted in sovereignty… not just increasing yields. 👀

Today, September 29, Mexico celebrates El Día Nacional de Maíz. 🇲🇽 🌽

Maíz, also known as corn, was first domesticated by the Indigenous peoples of Mexico some 10,000 years ago. It has been the backbone of Mexican culture, cuisine, and biodiversity ever since.

Mexico is home to over 60 native varieties of corn, all with unique characteristics that have naturally adapted to the needs of land and people over time.

Few foods embody the living relationship between what we grow, what we eat, and who we are so deeply.

Looking to support the movement for diverse corn varieties and small-scale farmers in Mexico? We’ve tagged a few of our favorite verified brands and aligned orgs here. Drop more in the comments below! 👇

One of the best time-tested tools for surviving drought? Diversity. 👈

As drought and extreme heat put increasing pressure on agriculture, the resilience of our food system depends not on how much we grow, but how much diversity we protect.

More than 75% of crop diversity was lost during the 20th century. Rebuilding diversity, from the seeds we save to the crops we grow and the practices we use, gives farmers more options when conditions inevitably change. 🥕🌱

Mosquitoes have long been a target for public health interventions. Now, biotech is taking aim at them in a new way: by genetically engineering “self-limiting” mosquitoes and releasing them into the environment. 🦟 🧬

The promise is compelling: fewer mosquitoes, fewer diseases, fewer problems.

But the real story is more complex. Bioengineered mosquitoes raise questions about how quickly genetic engineering is moving into environments and ecosystems - setting off ecosystem changes that can’t be undone.

More transparency about what’s actually in ultraprocessed food? We’re watching. 👀

With new changes to USDA regulations, many ultraprocessed foods will soon need to disclose their GMO ingredients with greater transparency.

The Center for Food Safety led the lawsuit against the USDA, arguing that the original exemption of highly processed ingredients meant many ultraprocessed foods containing GMO ingredients were going unlabeled - under current rules, around 70% of all GMO food ingredients are exempted from disclosure requirements.

In other words, eaters may finally be getting clearer, more accessible information about how their food is made.
