Pawnee Seed Preservation Project works to revitalize seed knowledge

This story was filed on

When the Pawnee lived in present day Nebraska, they grew corn to sustain the people. The Tribe had developed a great knowledge on how to care for and grow Pawnee corn. Much of the knowledge and the seeds were lost in the move to Oklahoma. The Pawnee Seed Preservation Project works to revitalize the knowledge and the seed bank so that Pawnee corn can once again be a part of their lives.
