WE NEED YOU

CHEP Good Food works on Treaty 6 territory, the traditional lands of many Indigenous peoples including the Cree (Nehiyaw), Saulteaux (Nakawe), Dene, Dakota, Lakota, Nakota peoples, and the homeland of the Métis Nation. Living and working on this land obliges CHEP to interrogate how access to food and land has been severed, and work collaboratively towards a just, sustainable relationship to the land for all.
