In recognition of October as Women in Small Business Month, Flower Hill Institute teamed with Yanessa TV and Meet My Neighbor Productions to produce three podcasts highlighting growing meat processing businesses being led by strong, resilient women.
The first podcast, issued on Wednesday, October 16th, featured Danielle Carillo, who owns and operates Clark’s Custom Meats in St. Joseph, MO, along with her husband, Max.
Chickens haven’t been part of many discussions about tribal food security. Tribal producers, Intertribal Agriculture Council (IAC) technical assistance providers, and others gathering for IAC’s first-ever Poultry Fly-In in Fayetteville, AR, in mid-October are changing that conversation.
[...] Nick said chasing buffalo is embedded in his genes. Still, he has learned to embrace the potential of poultry production and processing to significantly contribute to building food security for the Oglala Sioux people.
Laughing, he told the Poultry Fly-In attendees, “I’m now known around the area as ‘the chicken guy.’”
