Angie Comeaux is of Mvskoke, Cherokee, Chahta, and French Creole descent born and raised in South Louisiana, currently living and farming in south Alabama, in her ancestral Mvskoke homelands. She is a founding member of both Bvlbancha Collective and Okla Hina Ikhish Holo, two Indigenous Southeastern femme and non-binary collectives working in mutual aid, medicine and food sovereignty, and rebuilding ancestral trade routes. She is the Southeastern Technical Assistance Specialist with the Intertribal Agriculture Council. Angie is a seed grower for the Ujamaa Cooperative Farming Alliance and a student in the inaugural cohort of the Ira Wallace Seed School. Angie is also a 2022-2023 fellow with the Soul Fire Farm Braiding Seeds fellowship. And in 2023 Angie completed Clinical Herbal Practitioner school with the Appalachian Center for Natural Health and 4th year of herbal medicine courses.



Most importantly, Angie is the founder of Hvrvnrvcukwv Ueki-honecv (Hummingbird Springs) Farm, a fallow 120-year-old peanut farm that she, her partner, and community are transitioning into an Indigenous food forest. Between 2022-2023, Angie and her community planted over 2,000 native trees at Hvrvnrvcukwv Ueki-honecv Farm. They are also stewarding ruminants, poultry, equine, and a huge range of native and culturally significant plants. The goal at Hvrvnrvcukwv Ueki-honecv Farm is to fully reclaim and resurrect Indigenous agricultural practices that have been sleeping and to welcome those practices back to their homelands. The mission of Hvrvnrvcukwv Ueki-honecv is to show what Indigenous sovereignty truly looks like, to be a living example of what prioritizing community care and the needs of the land can achieve, to show that when we listen to the land and the land's original stewards we can not only heal our communities but thrive. Angie feels that it is necessary that we bring the songs, the language, and our lifeways back home. It is vital that we build our future in right relationship with the land and with one another.
