​Maya Regeneration Project

​We Are The Land, The Land Is Us

​The Maya Q’anjob’al people possess profound wisdom and agricultural knowledge and have forged meaningful connections with other indigenous groups in Nebraska; however, we are also a displaced indigenous people, and many of us live in economic poverty. We propose combining this indigenous wisdom and knowledge with recent advancements in regenerative agriculture to create a food production system that will provide healthy, local food, lift Maya people out of poverty in Nebraska in our traditional homeland, and contribute to broad economic development. 
The Maya Regeneration Project ​​
​The mission of this project is to anchor the Maya Q’anjob’al community’s ancient relationship with the land, create employment, build collective wealth, ensure access to healthy food, restore traditions and culture, support holistic physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health, and heal our water and soil through Indigenous-based agricultural practices.
​The MRP currently has the following active sub-projects:

Maya Community Center Garden

The Maya community came together to create a community garden at our Maya Community Center in South Omaha. After a blessing ceremony led by Maya spiritual leaders, we planted the garden with seeds from Sacred Seed. With this garden we are teaching ourselves and our community about Indigenous and regenerative agriculture techniques and helping ourselves to access healthy, local culturally-appropriate food.

Maya Regeneration Farm

The Maya Community is also working to establish a profitable regenerative poultry, agroforestry, and value-added farm operation with agrotourism attractions that can also serve as a spiritual land base for our displaced Indigenous Maya community on land within 60 miles of Omaha, Nebraska. We were tentatively approved for the USDA Land Access Capital grant in Summer 2023 with our collaborators, Agrarian Land Trust.
Our dream of land to call our own is within reach.

Rural Maya Entrepreneurs

Providing Maya Q'anjob'al and other Indigenous Maya immigrants with the language access, training, tools, and resources they need to start or grow their small businesses LLCs or cooperative models.
