About the company

First Nations Development Institute is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Longmont, Colorado, registered as a minority-owned, Native American-owned business that focuses on improving economic conditions for Native American communities. The organization specializes in providing comprehensive services to Native American farmers, ranchers, and tribal nations, including technical assistance, training, advocacy, and policy efforts aimed at supporting indigenous economic development, food sovereignty, and sustainable agricultural practices. Through its federal grant work, First Nations Development Institute serves as a critical intermediary organization that delivers targeted support to Native American communities across multiple regions of the United States.

The organization has received multiple federal grant awards primarily from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), including cooperative agreements and project grants under programs such as the Soil and Water Conservation program, Beginning Farmer and Rancher Development Program, Farm to School Grant Program, and Landscape Scale Restoration program. These grants, totaling millions of dollars, have supported initiatives like developing conservation leadership skills for Native natural resource professionals, creating apprenticeship networks for Native farmers and ranchers, supporting grassroots food sovereignty collaborators, improving access to local foods in child nutrition programs, and building tribal nations' capacity to engage in climate mitigation and forest resilience efforts. First Nations Development Institute has worked with community partners like the Cheyenne River Sioux Buffalo Authority, Oneida Market, and Trilogy Beef to deliver training, technical assistance, and financial support to Native producers in regions including the Great Plains, Southwest, and Northern Great Plains, with a consistent focus on strengthening local food systems, promoting sustainable land management, and supporting economic development in Native American communities.
