About the Native American Agriculture Fund
The Native American Agriculture Fund (NAAF) is a private, charitable trust that envisions a future where Native farmers and ranchers thrive and play a crucial role in land stewardship and the Nation’s economic viability. Our mission is to empower Native and rural communities with the knowledge, resources, and support to foster robust agricultural practices, resilience, and economic self-sufficiency. We believe that by investing in Native agriculture, we can strengthen rural America’s infrastructure development and job creation, benefiting everyone.
