The Cherokee Nation – both its people and its tradition – were part of the 24 February seed deposit at the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, making it the first US-based tribe to safeguard its culturally important seeds in the Seed Vault. The deposit included the Cherokee Nation’s indigenous maize, beans and squash seeds. The Cherokee Nation also has its own seed bank, which was inspired by the Svalbard Global Seed Vault and now provides seeds to tribal citizens who are interested in growing traditional Cherokee crops.
