Ann Tenakhongva, right, 62, and her husband, Clark Tenakhongva, 65, sort traditional Hopi corn at their home on First Mesa on the Hopi Reservation in Arizona in late September, 2022. The corn comes from the family's field in the valley between First Mesa and Second Mesa, which Clark had just harvested. The corn is organized on racks to dry out and then stored in cans and bins for years to come. Much of the corn is ground up for food and ceremonial uses. Credit: David Wallace
