The Three Nations Story

The history of Three Nations, encompassing the Numa (Northern Paiute), Washeshu (Washoe), and Newe (Shoshone), is deeply intertwined with our commitment to community improvement, cultural enrichment, and the healing potential of cannabis. Originating in the Great Basin, collectively known as “The People,” navigated life harmoniously with nature, strategically migrating based on seasonal cycles and resource availability. Despite the challenges posed by European contact, the tribes sustained their way of life longer than many others. The discovery of gold in 1848 and subsequent societal shifts brought profound changes, impacting their traditional lands and prompting federal policies that aimed to assimilate and relocate them. Through the Treaty Period, Reservation Period, and Allotment and Assimilation Plan, The People faced challenges to their cultural identity and land rights. The Indian Reorganization Act of 1934 led to the establishment of the Reno-Sparks Indian Colony, a pivotal moment in their fight for autonomy. Overcoming the Termination Era, Three Nations emerged resiliently into the era of Tribal Self-Determination in 1970, allowing them to control their affairs while maintaining federal support. Today, Three Nations’ history is a testament to our enduring commitment to community well-being, cultural celebration, and the harmonious integration of cannabis for healing purposes. Uniting amongst our tribal leaders we maintain a mission to utilize cannabis to help improve the quality of life for our community, provide opportunities for employment and growth, and help spread awareness of our tribe’s history and culture.

Our connection to cannabis

Rooted in their rich heritage, the Paiute people, known as Numu or “The People,” hold a profound connection to the healing forces present in nature. Embracing the belief that power (pooha) could be found in various natural elements, including animals, plants, stones, water, and celestial phenomena, the Paiutes recognized the inherent healing properties within their environment. This deep reverence for nature aligns seamlessly with Three Nations’ mission to foster community well-being and prosperity. As Three Nations integrates the healing powers of cannabis into their mission, they draw inspiration from indigenous wisdom, creating a harmonious synergy between cultural heritage and the transformative potential of cannabis to contribute to the thriving and prosperity of their community.
