Teach, Learn, Share

I like to talk about food and stemming from the year at grad school, a primary interest is in food education: teaching people the importance of knowing where their food comes from; understanding the quality of seasonal foods in terms of taste, availability and food miles; promoting better food choices and eating habits; supporting local producers and fair labor; and ensuring the secured development of food sustainability.
