Description
The purpose of the White Corn Project is to create access to white corn products among Seneca Nation of Indians members and to increase awareness of the benefits of white corn among Seneca Nation members, leveraging the availability of white corn products to improve the health and well-being of Seneca Community members. To increase white corn usage at the Seneca Nation, cooking demonstrations featuring white corn will be held at the Salamanca and Seneca Nation Farmers Markets and training sessions will be conducted for the kitchen/ nutrition personnel of several Seneca Nation agencies.
