Our Name - (ah-tsai-ya)
The name Atsaya is a word in the Keres language for a type of wildflower indigenous to the region. Keres is spoken at several of the pueblos in New Mexico. Atsaya the flower, requires little water but still manages to bloom in the heat of summer and retains its blossom even when cut. The image evoked by an indigenous, resilient blossom is akin to this native owned venture and was chosen for that reason. This business will work with tribal nations, tribal entities, community-based organizations and candidates for elected office to advance policies that support healthy, prosperous communities.
