Join Earth Tenders for an engaging workshop exploring personal food stories and histories through a radical, anti-colonial lens. Participants will learn about the origins of food staples and reflect on their cultural significance.
The workshop offers space for journaling, group discussions and creative activities. Whether you're curious about food sovereignty or seeking deeper connections to what you eat, this session invites meaningful reflection and connection to soil and the land.
Tickets are Pay What You Can; all proceeds will help us continue funding the work we do.
