8: Bringing Seed Ancestors Home with Tiffany Traverse

Today’s interview is really special for me to share with you all, because my guest is someone I’ve formed a really wonderful friendship with through the podcast community – I’m fairly certain we connected through one of my former guests, Trina Moyles – and being able to sit with her today after years of both of us growing our work and cheering each other on means a lot. So! Now that I’ve set the stage, I will introduce our fabulous guest for today… Tiffany Traverse! Tiffany’s self described as a Secwépemc and Swiss-Italian Seed Keeper, chicken chaser, Zone 2 stretcher, and Fourth Sister to the land. She’s been experimenting and working on cultivating, saving, and sharing Indigenous vegetable and herb seed varieties through Fourth Sister Farms. Today she speaks with me on the work she’s doing at Fourth Sister Farms and how it connects to a broader community of seed keepers across Turtle Island to foster Indigenous food and land sovereignty. We also speak to the importance of Land Back and the ways we can do more to help Indigenous land and water protectors continue their efforts.

86: Seed Keeping and Land Sovereignty with Tiffany Traverse of 4th Sister Farm

Tiffany Traverse is an Indigenous seed and land steward at Fourth Sister Farm, a guest in the Peace Region of what’s now known as BC, on Treaty 8 territory, homeland of the Dane-zaa peoples. The land she tends is home base for her ongoing exploration of the relationships between seed and heritage, history and self. In this episode, Tiffany talks about the mentors who have helped guide her seed work, the incredible seeds and plants that inspire her reverent curiosity, and the importance of listening and having "uncomfy conversations" in order to heal ourselves, each other, and our food and seed systems. --- Tiffany Traverse est une intendante autochtone qui s’occupe d’une terre et de semences à la Fourth Sister Farm, une invitée dans la région de Peace de la province connue sous le nom de Colombie-Britannique, sur le territoire du Traité 8, terre d’origine du peuple Dane-zaa. Sur la terre dont elle s’occupe, elle continue d’explorer les relations entre les semences et le patrimoine, l’histoire et l’identité. Dans cet épisode, Tiffany nous parle des mentores qui l’ont guidé dans ses travaux, des semences incroyables qui suscitent sa « curiosité révérencieuse » et de l’importance d’écouter et d’avoir des « conversations inconfortables » pour nous aider à guérir, et à guérir les systèmes alimentaires et semenciers.
