Background: Majority owner & founder, Leah Wells-Swanson is a member of the Nisqually Indian Tribe. She is active in her community & is currently appointed to the Community Development Committee, an integral part of the short & long-term planning for her Tribe. In the past she has as the elected Secretary of the Transportation & Personnel Committees.
The Nisqually Indians are the people of the river, the people of the grass. We are a sovereign nation and the original people of the Pacific Northwest. The Nisqually reservation land was established on December 26, 1854 by the Medicine Creek Treaty; a treaty that included many of the other other Tribes in Western Washington. “We envision the Nisqually Tribe as a place were spirits are strong and good. It is a place where all people, interconnected with all things, can live in harmony." To learn more about my people, please visit the Nisqually Indian Tribe’s website at www.nisqually-nsn.gov
