Native American food sovereignty experts will soon have more say into how the U.S. Department of Agriculture approaches everything from crop subsidies to low-income nutrition programs. The agency’s new tribal advisory committee is the latest in a series of steps to add more muscle into its Indigenous Food Sovereignty Initiative. Plus, a new Lumbee-owned bakery in North Carolina’s capital city is both a spot to pick up tasty macrons and an incubator for other bakers - and the Yurok Tribe’s annual salmon festival goes ahead without any salmon because of declining fish stocks. That and more on The Menu with our resident foodie Andi Murphy.
