Food production, security ambitions growing in Fort Smith, N.W.T.
Between ambitious goals for the community garden and plans to develop an apple orchard in town, the community is taking steps to improve its own food sovereignty after wildfires in 2023 cut the town off from many of its usual food supply routes.

I visited a garden today morning and found these garden aggplants ready.
They are big and long,as if they are snakes.
I had to get some of them off for today's soup.
Let us work together to enable each family to own some plants that can be sources of their food within our society

2/ Risk Factors and Headwinds in US Agriculture - a report I generated for Green Econometrics, a consulting firm I co-founded. We’ll be publishing this on our Substack but I thought I’d provide my followers who are interested an advanced copy to preview and perhaps discuss. This is targeted to those with an interest in #Agriculture #farming #farms #farmers #cattle and #FoodProduction.

NOTE: My firm has integrated Claude 4.7 into our practice to support directed research, to create charts & graphs, and to format output. Content design, development and editorial direction by humans with full audits for accuracy. If you hate AI, don’t come at me. I too think it needs regulation & guardrails. I’m aware of the environmental costs. I’m lobbying my reps for all of the above. Truth is, tho, it is a powerful tool & offers users considerable support that firms like mine can’t ignore - if we want to stay competitive.

Note 2: Google Doc format - don’t hate on me, I’m looking to transition.

Our maize garden is more than a field — it’s hope for the community. These big, healthy corns show how farming can fight hunger, feed families, and create a stronger future. Every harvest supports food security, community growth, and a greener environment. Together, we can grow more, share more, and build a healthier planet for everyone. #FoodSecurity #agriculture #SustainableFarming #gardening #environment #economics #ClimateAction #foodproduction #diet #sustainability #plants #soils #hunger

At the Green Youth Movement, our mission is to fight hunger, empower vulnerable communities, and protect the environment through sustainable agriculture and youth engagement. We believe that agriculture is not only a source of food, but also a powerful tool for creating opportunity, restoring dignity, and building hope for the future.

We cannot eat our maize alone but other environmental living organisms like birds and monkeys are the first,is this what is called interdependence in the ecosystem?

To protect other corn from being attacked,we have to leave the ones that has already been destroyed to continue being destroyed because these organisms have to feed but they so not cultivate.

Just imagine eating #organicfoods straight from your own garden. Today, I tasted our own potatoes, and honestly they were so delicious.

They are not fully ready for harvest yet, but at least no one in the @econetwork group can sleep hungry. We have a place to learn grow and always find something to eat.

Farmers truly enjoy organic foods hhhh 🥔
