Description
The Hoopa Valley was at one time an agricultural and trading community in the early 1900’s. The Hoopa community has experience less family livestock and farm raising. It was not uncommon during that time period for youth to raise and run cattle in the Hoopa valley and on the Forest Service summit. The lack of families raising livestock has caused food insecurity to a great number of residents in the community. Through this project, the KTRCD looks to help revitalize livestock to support the local food system and economy.
