APAC is intended to help Native Americans make good money through Hydroponic Farming, which is better known as Greenhouse Farming. We don't need 100s or 1,000s of acres to make substantial money through farming. Using 10, 20 or 30 or more acres to grow food crops using Hydroponic Farming, is all that is necessary to make good money. And since the food will be grown indoors it means year round farming. The intentions of APAC are to expand APAC farms on Reservations, while also establishing new settlements on Reservations. If you are interested in joining APAC, click the email contact link below.

We will keep the loans applied for under $2,000 to ensure no major depts occur. We will then incorporate into a private corporation.
Browning, Blackfeet Reservation
Located on the southern portion of the Blackfeet Reservation, is the Anishinabe city of Browning. Browning may be one of the largest Native American cities in the United States. Browning is the largest Anishinabe city. Most of the Indians living in Browning are Algonquian, but many are Athabascan, Dakota, and Salishan. Browning can be classified as being of three specific areas. North Browning, Central Browning, and South Browning. You will come across information which claims each area is a city of its own but that is not true. All three areas of Browning are connected which means the three areas are one city. Those people living on the west side of Browning have the beautiful Rocky Mountains (Glacier National Park) as an ideal scenery. The west side of Browning may possibly have more housing units built in the future. The population of Browning is likely much larger than estimated. It is common to see up to 3 to 6 cars around one house, which could be an indication of two or more families sharing the same housing unit.
Central Browning
It is the main location of the city, or it is considered to be in fact the city of Browning. It covers 0.3 sq. mi. Browning (Central Browning) has 409 housing units and a population according to the 2010 census of 1,016. Some 94% of Browning's (Central Browning) population is Native American. Around 6% are non Indian. The citizens of Browning (Central Browning) are doing well financially. Around 29% live below the poverty line. Central Browning is probably the oldest part of present day Browning. West Central Avenue is the main street going through Central Browning. It goes from west to east for about four blocks. Many a business is located on West Central Avenue. Other high traffic streets in Central Browning are North Peigan Street, Public Square Street, 1st Avenue Southwest, and 2nd Avenue Southwest. Central Browning has more trees than North Browning and South Browning. It also has many mobile homes.
South Browning
South Browning covers 2.4 sq. mi. and has a population of 1,677. There are a total of 526 housing units in South Browning. Around 96% of South Browning's population is Native American. Around 3% is non Indian. What is alarming about South Browning is the fact that 49% of the population lives below the poverty line. South Browning has quite a few duplexes. The main schools for Browning are within South Browning. Main streets in South Browning are Southeast Boundary Street which is also known as US. Highway 2, Sesame Street, and South Peigan Street.

The main streets going through North Browning are North Peigan Street where the city's hospital is located, Starr School Road, and State Highway 464 which is also known as Duck Lake Road. Brownings best housing units are located in North Browning. Compared to Central Browning, North Browning has almost no trees. South Browning also has few trees. It could be evidence of a large percentage of Brownings population living under the poverty line. Other high traffic roads going through Browning are Agency Road, All Chiefs Road, and Grandpa Road.
In all, the city of Browning has a total of 1,650 housing units and a total population of 5,209 according to the 2010 census. That is according to the estimate of the whites. Browning has an average household size of 3.5 persons per household. However, if the average housing unit size (up to 8.0 persons per housing unit) on the Pine Ridge Reservation is correct, that probably means Browning's population could be near 10,000 or over 10,000, because of the obvious similarities existing on western Reservations, especially in Montana and the Pine Ridge Reservation.
Browning is a growing city and is experiencing growth problems, as all growing cities do. From north to south, Browning is a good two and a half miles. From west to east, Browning is just under a mile in width. Browning covers a total area of 5.7 sq. mi. Though they claim that North Browning and South Browning, are not a part of the city of Browning, using google earth you learn otherwise. All three areas of Browning are just one city. There are many businesses in Browning, including an Iga, Taco John, Subway, and many others. Browning is the capital of the Blackfeet Reservation which means many government jobs. Then the schools of Browning employ many as does the college located in the city. The main street is either West Central Avenue or Southeast Boundary Street which is also known as State highway 464 in North Browning. Southeast Boundary Street may have the most business establishments in Browning.
Browning is going through an economic crisis. Lack of trees and lawn care, indicates the citizens of Browning are having to use their money to take care of each other. They don't have enough money to enjoy comfort. The city needs new housing as the city's leaders have loudly protested. It is obvious that many of the housing units in Browning are shared by more than one family, and Brownings population is much larger than estimated. Most of the citizens of Browning will not leave the Reservation. That represents a tough problem for the city's leaders to confront. They need money to help their city's citizens improve ecomonically, and especially for new housing units. They know the whites don't care for them and want them to disappear.
Since Browning is obviously a growing city, the city's leaders are going to have to plan for the future. Expanding their casinos nearer to white communities is one suggestion. They will make housing unit additions, either using their own generated wealth, or through loans from the State of Montana or the government of the United States. They have survived up to now by reacting strongly to their predicament. Most of the citizens of the Blackfeet Reservation will not leave their country. They will tough it out as their ancestors did.
In 1990, it was reported that the Little Shell Chippewa population in Browning (Central Browning) was 165. In 1990, Browning (Central Browning) had a population of 1,170. That means the Chippewa's made up near 15% of Browning's population. At least 165 Anishinabe people were still clinging on to their Anishinabe identity in Browning in 1990. However, most of the citizens of Browning are in fact Chippewa or Anishinabe. Blackfoot people must read William W. Warrens 19th century book "History of the Ojibway People."
