The Wyandotte Nation was able to distribute free, local food to nearly 350 families in our community (Native and non-Native) during our October distribution event. It’s the fourth distribution event the Tribe has done for the community.

Families who took part in the opportunity received locally-produced food Friday, Oct. 25. With the help of students from Wyandotte High School, Wyandotte Nation staff and volunteers distributed the boxes and bags of food at the Tribe’s Administration Building.

Thanks to all who volunteered in packaging and distributing the items.

The Wyandotte Nation received grant funds from USDA’s Local Food Purchase Assistance Cooperative Agreement Program. Money for this project allows the Tribe to distribute locally grown, sourced, and produced food to our underserved community.
