Our next immediate goal is to purchase 100 acres of land on the reservation for the warehouse/distribution center, a food forest/communal farm, more construction projects for basic infrastructure, and the necessary legal fees and a lawyer to procure a buffalo pasture so that we can stop relying on white ranchers commodifying the necessities for ceremonial practices.

Will post updates when we get the next round of fundraising going, but considering it only took us two weeks to raise our first 10k I'm confident we will be able to do this and I will be returning next year.

    Best of luck with your project! The first 5 years are the hardest. I don't know if your project is a commune or something else but if you're creating a commune remember that you aren't the first to have done it and there are many examples to learn from. Most of them are examples of what not to do but they're examples nonetheless. If a commune is what you're creating, my DMs are open and I may have advice.

      Thanks and no we are not building a commune, we are helping build out infrastructure on the reservation, though I may move out there eventually if all goes well.
