Modoc Nation (formerly The Modoc Tribe of Oklahoma)
This project will create a shared understanding of the lands the Modoc Nation now owns to allow them to retain, utilize, and control their natural resources and increase their ability to leverage other activities and support to eliminate neighbors' ability to take advantage of these lands without benefiting the Tribe.

Native Hawaiian
This project will create an innovative and climate-resilient gene bank of traditional Native Hawaiian foods which will help to retain native stewardship over our traditional foods, archive and elevate traditional recipes and dishes, and connect Hānai ʻAi (food producer-practioners) with resources to sustain a Native Hawaiian food ecosystem.

Other
The objective of the land program is to build their land base and protect cultural and natural resources of available land within the Tribe’s aboriginal territory by leveraging assets in order to create a community forest. This would help fulfill 3 of 12 priorities of their Tribal Environmental Plan (2021)
The Muscogee (Creek) Nation
This project will help increase access to fresh fruits and vegetables for tribal members by creating small-scale hydroponic demonstration sites to provide food and training. It will leverage existing infrastructure by partnering with entities that serve key cohorts of the Muscogee Nation: children; youth; Elders; language preservation; and chartered communities.
Inter-Tribal
This project will leverage CIMCC’s current efforts to purchase and/or obtain donated oak woodlands to be utilized and controlled by Native community members for traditional food way activities by training CIMCC staff and Native youth to form and develop a new non-profit land trust.
