Rowen White, a Mohawk Indigenous woman leader, has built a life for herself as a farmer, educator and guardian of traditional and Indigenous seed varieties. Through her organization, Sierra Seeds, based in Northern California, Rowen is growing indigenous-centered seed education and action, including the ‘re-matriation’, or returning of varieties of seeds which had been removed from their traditional communities, back to the hands of their original stewards in Indigenous communities across North America.
