Description
The ultimate purpose is to use our plan as outlined and put into effect as a starting place to rebuild a sustainable local economy by using ready local resources a and ready local market to bring quality protein to local people, and sustainable jobs to an area of traditionally high unemployment. We will retain and enhance the local beef industry by developing a sustainable market for their products while providing a healthy protein source for our tribal people and others in our area. We will utilize and grow a ready resource by using select beef that are hormone free.
