'This is impressive and it should be': Osage Nation aims to eliminate food desert with state-of-the-art facility tulsaworld.com - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from tulsaworld.com Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
PAWHUSKA â The Osage Nation on Monday displayed how it spent about $13 million, dedicating facilities aimed at providing food security for the tribe.
Unveiled were a 42,000-square-foot greenhouse and a 44,000-square-foot programs building, which includes aquaponics and food processing areas.
The investment came via the CARES (Coronavirus Assistance, Relief and Economic Security) Act, which earlier this year provided $8 billion in financial assistance to tribal governments.
âThis is money that did not go to the Bureau of Indian Affairs or to the federal bureaucracy,â Osage Nation Principal Chief Geoffrey Standing Bear said. âThis money came directly to the Osage Nation. This is proof if the funds bypass the bureaucracy and arrive to us, we know how to use them.â
