Texas Tribal Buffalo Project

This project supports the restoration of buffalo and native grasslands in the Southern Plains to revitalize Indigenous foodways, strengthen land stewardship, and rebuild a buffalo-based economy rooted in cultural sovereignty, ecological balance, and community well-being.

This project will enable Texas Tribal Buffalo Project to increase their capacity to support a Meat Manager to increase the accessibility of a traditional food source, the Buffalo, for Indigenous Lineal Descendants across Texas.

This project will utilize a mobile freezer unit to distribute buffalo meat, and essentially increase the availability of traditional food sources across Texas Indigenous communities.

The Texas Tribal Buffalo Project exists to establish Food Sovereignty and reconnect Texas Tribal people to the Buffalo. We are a community development organization using the Buffalo and Indigenous knowledge to create access to healthy food, resources, and cultural education opportunities.

Our outlined project will seek to achieve the following overall goal: to provide Indigenous communities in South Central Texas with increased access to food and education surrounding traditional foodways.
