On ancestral lands, the Pueblo of Santa Ana preserves the past and protects the future.

In 2016, the Pueblo of Santa Ana bought back 60,000 acres of their ancestral lands—lands that had been privatized and then grazed for more than a century. Now, they’re using traditional knowledge and western science to protect the lands of Tamaya Kwii Kee Nee Puu, their cultural heritage, wildlife and ecosystems, and the pueblo's future.
