Native America Calling: A Mohawk chef on TV and a Native foods cookbook
Friday, January 31, 2025
The Menu: Mohawk chef’s TV show, Zach Ducheneaux leaves USDA office, and a kids’ cookbook
In the new APTN series One Dish One Spoon with chef Tawnya Brant (Mohawk), viewers follow her and her sister Dakota to local kitchens, farms, and waterways to expose the traditional foodways of the Six Nations.
Zach Ducheneaux (Cheyenne River Sioux) leaves his post this month as the administrator of the Farm Service Agency at the Department of Agriculture. During his time in the Joe Biden administration, he helped direct some of the federal government’s key agriculture and faming programs and policies. The work of Mariah Gladstone (Cherokee and Blackfeet) teaching people about Indigenous food and cooking leads her to publish an Indigenous foods cookbook for kids, Mountains to Oceans: Kids’ Recipes from Native Land. That’s all on The Menu, Native America Calling’s regular feature on Indigenous food sovereignty hosted by Andi Murphy.
