The Oneida Nation of Wisconsin is building a local food economy.

The tribe operates two farms that supply products to students and elders. The products are also available for the general public at the Oneida Market in Green Bay as part of the Oneida Community Integrated Food System.

“If you can keep it more local and get more involved on the ownership side, there’ll be an improvement on everything, and it cuts back on the need to transport everything," vice chairman Greg Matson told The Green Bay Press-Gazette.
