We are thrilled to launch Standing Rocks Food and Wellness Fund, a Native-led nonprofit dedicated to nourishing our community with healthy, culturally significant foods while fostering wellness and food sovereignty for Standing Rocks Tribal communities under the visionary leadership of Chief Bearking. We're building a movement to empower our people through sustainable food programs, community gardens, traditional food revitalization, and nutrition education.

Our Mission:

Our goal is to address food insecurity and promote wellness by bringing back traditional foods like corn, beans, squash, bison, and wild rice to our tables. We're creating community gardens, hosting...

Workshops to Teach Healthy Cooking and Traditional Harvesting, and Reaches Ensuring Fresh, Nutritious Food Honoring Our Elders and Families:

By honoring our Lakota values, we’re cultivating pride, resilience, health, and cultural pride.

Educational Podcast Initiative

We’re excited to launch an educational podcast featuring tribal members, including Chief Bearking, to share the true stories, wisdom, and resilience of our people. This platform will educate listeners about our cultural heritage, traditional food practices, and the challenges of food insecurity while amplifying the voices of our community. Your support will help fund recording equipment, editing, and distribution to reach a global audience by Spring 2026.

Why This Matters

Standing Rock, like many Native communities, faces disproportionate challenges with food insecurity and health disparities. By reviving traditional food practices and building sustainable systems, we’re not just feeding bodies—we’re strengthening our community.

Our Culture Healing Our Community and Reclaiming Our Food Sovereignty

Your support will directly impact families, elders, youth, ensuring access to healthy, culturally relevant foods.

Join Our Journey

With your help, we can launch a pilot garden, host our first nutrition workshop, and deliver food to those in need by Spring 2026. Every dollar brings us closer to a healthier, more connected Standing Rock community.
