Experience Woodland

Our Sustenance

Our Sustenance introduces participants to three important crops – corns, beans, and squash – that were planted yearly to sustain the Hodinohsho:ni. Participants will learn about traditional farming practices, nutrition, nixtamalization, and some traditional dishes the Hodinohsho:ni prepared using corn, beans, and squash.
