Canada: Manitoba First Nation tribe receives geodome to improve food security

A Manitoba First Nation is stepping into the future to help make sure people have access to affordable, nutritious food. According to the Southern Chiefs' Organization (SCO) a geodome has been built in Gambler First Nation.

SCO said a geodome is similar to a greenhouse and can be used all year long.

SCO said the spherical design of the structure, which is made from interlocking triangles, will allow it to withstand harsh conditions, including seven feet of snow.

Fruit and vegetables will be grown inside the geodome, and it'll also house a fresh fish aquarium.
