About Us – Nishnabe Spirit

Welcome to Nishnabe Spirit, where the heartbeat of Native America resonates through authentic goods and a commitment to empowering Native entrepreneurs. Our story is woven with the threads of family, artistry, and a passion for sustainability.

Our Roots
Nishnabé Spirit is more than a business; it’s a family legacy deeply rooted in the rich heritage of the Potawatomi people. Our matriarch, a seasoned artist born and raised on an Oklahoma farm, instilled in us a love for craftsmanship and a connection to the land. Her creative spirit serves as the guiding force behind our commitment to preserving and promoting Native American arts.

The Stewards of Nishnabé Spirit
At the helm of Nishnabé Spirit is a single mom whose journey intertwines degrees in environmental science and sustainability with a profound dedication to uplifting Native communities. With a vision that transcends commerce, she envisions a platform that not only showcases authentic Native American goods but also fosters sustainable, thriving businesses within indigenous communities.

A Creative Collective
Nishnabé Spirit is a harmony of talents. The eldest daughter, adept in social media relations and graphic art, brings a modern touch to our age-old traditions. The two younger daughters, artists and musicians, infuse their creativity into the fabric of our enterprise, celebrating the diverse expressions of Native culture.

Our Mission
Nishnabé Spirit is more than just an e-commerce site; it’s a movement. Our mission is to be a premier destination for Native American products and information. We aspire to break down barriers for Native entrepreneurs, creating opportunities for them to flourish on reservations, in cities, and everywhere in between.

Native Communities
We believe in empowering Native Americans to run successful, profitable businesses within their communities. Whether it’s a single mom working from home, families preserving ancestral arts, or native farmers growing sustainably, Nishnabé Spirit is here to provide the platform and support needed to thrive.

Removing Barriers, Building Bridges
Nishnabé Spirit is dedicated to removing barriers and building bridges for Native entrepreneurs. We aim to facilitate access to markets, connect artisans with customers, and create a sustainable ecosystem where the spirit of Native American craftsmanship can thrive.

Join us on this journey as we celebrate the resilience, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit of Native Americans. At Nishnabe Spirit, every purchase is a step toward preserving tradition, fostering sustainability, and supporting the dreams of Native entrepreneurs.
