THIS IS MAÍZ

Corn holds a profound significance within our Mexican culture. To advocate for corn is to defend our fundamental right to nourishment and to maintain ownership over the seeds that have been passed down to us by our ancestral people.

 

The preservation of native corn across the Americas is in jeopardy unless we acknowledge and embrace the extraordinary biodiversity that has flourished within our lands for millennia. Beyond the familiar cans of yellow corn lining supermarket shelves or the commercially cultivated hybrid white seeds, there exists a wealth of diversity that must be recognized.

 

As consumers, we possess the power to protect this precious treasure simply by choosing to consume and spread the word about non-GMO heirloom artisan-produced Nixtamal corn in our city. By supporting small-scale farmers with whom we trade, we enable them to continue cultivating up to 59 distinct registered varieties in México, and many more in the United States.

 

Let us embrace our role as custodians of this cultural heritage, standing united to celebrate and sustain the incredible wealth of corn that defines our identity. Together, we can ensure that future generations will inherit the legacy of this invaluable resource.
