Wado to Central Texas Cherokee Township for our Grow Corn, Grow Communities a Hominy Making Workshop

On Sunday, October 19, 2025, Doug Martin and his son spoke, taught, cooked, and shared stories with our Children and Youth Religious Education (CYRE) class and after church with the congregation and community in the Wildflower Community Room. What powerful (and yummy) indigenous lessons and wisdom corn offers about working together, identity, history, the future, and so much more.

Thank you to Central Texas Cherokee Township for this collaboration and mutual community support of our Three Sisters Garden.
