ONA is dedicated to restoring Indigenous food systems and ensuring food sovereignty for the well-being and resilience of the community members. Central to this commitment is the development and promotion of a food fishery, currently focused on the harvest of Okanagan sockeye salmon. The salmon is 100% local and 100% wild, using selective harvesting methods and quality control. They keep an eye on the future without forgetting the past. Through ONA’s thoughtful planning, careful handling, and quality processing, we are able to enjoy premium Salmon and value-added products that are affordable.
