A Feather and a Fork: 125 Intertribal Recipes From an Indigenous Food Warrior
By Crystal Wahpepah with Amy Paige Condon
Foreword by Tommy Orange
A ho pi ti ke no. Welcome. These words are written on the board above the counter as guests come into Wahpepah’s Kitchen, and now they extend to all of you in my new cookbook, “A Feather and a Fork: 125 Intertribal Dishes from an Indigenous Food Warrior,” coming March 17, 2026.
With this book, I am inviting you into a way of thinking about the food you cook for yourself and your family that is rooted in the oldest traditions of my people and of this land we now share. These traditions represent the key to not only our physical, mental, and spiritual health but also to the health of our planet. What we grow, how we grow it, and how we distribute the food to our communities can change how we live with one another and begin to solve so many of the problems that separate us from one another and ourselves.
